Abstract: Community-Based Learning (CBL) is a transformative pedagogical approach with diverse applications across educational fields. However, its impact in Islamic countries has raised concerns regarding its breadth and relevance across sectors. This study offers a bibliometric review of CBL research from 1991 to 2024, analysing 176 publications from the Scopus database. Various tools, including Microsoft Excel for frequency analysis, VOSviewer for data visualization, and Harzing's Publish or Perish for citation metrics, were employed. The findings indicate a significant rise in CBL research, yet citation trends remain inconsistent. Most studies were concentrated in the medical and educational fields, with Indonesia and Malaysia leading in publication output, while Egypt hosted the most active institutions. The keywords used in CBL research highlighted three themes: human-centric focus, educational focus, and academic keywords. However, the lack of specific, focused keywords limits in-depth exploration. The results provide important implications for improving CBL research and practise in Islamic countries.
