Abstract: Despite global efforts to reduce hunger, significant challenges persist, exacerbated by factors such as conflict, climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) aims to address these challenges by promoting food security, sustainable agriculture, and nutrition improvement. Indonesia, with its diverse agricultural landscape, faces persistent food security issues despite significant agricultural potential. Leveraging Islamic principles encapsulated in Maqasid Al-Sharia offers a unique perspective to tackle these challenges comprehensively. This systematic review article synthesizes qualitative evidence from 25 academic papers across three categories: SDGs and Islam's perspective on food security, application of Maqasid Al-Sharia in food security, and Indonesia's strategies against hunger. The integration of Maqasid Al-Sharia principles with efforts to achieve food security, as outlined in SDG 2, offers a comprehensive approach rooted in ethical and sustainable practices. Islam's emphasis on compassion, equitable distribution of resources, and responsible stewardship align closely with the goals of ending hunger and promoting sustainable agriculture. Initiatives such as the Islamic Foodbank concept in Indonesia demonstrate how Islamic principles can be effectively applied to address poverty and food insecurity through mechanisms like zakat.
