Abstract

The rapid adoption of electronic money has transformed consumer payment behavior by providing greater convenience, efficiency, and accessibility in financial transactions. However, these advantages may also encourage excessive consumption that conflicts with Islamic consumption principles. This study aims to analyze the influence of electronic money on the potential for israf (wastefulness) and the formation of Shariah consumption behavior among students of SMKN 1 Sempol. This study employed a quantitative approach with a causal associative research design. Primary data were collected through a structured Likert-scale questionnaire administered to 30 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using simple linear regression with the assistance of IBM SPSS.The results indicate that electronic money has a positive and significant effect on the potential for israf ($\beta = 0.675$; $p < 0.001$) and on the formation of Shariah consumption behavior ($\beta = 0.731$; $p < 0.001$). The coefficient of determination shows that electronic money explains 67.2% of the variance in the potential for israf ($R^2 = 0.672$) and 49.6% of the variance in Shariah consumption behavior ($R^2 = 0.496$). These findings indicate that electronic money exerts a stronger influence on the potential for israf than on the formation of Shariah consumption behavior, suggesting that technological convenience affects transactional decisions more rapidly than ethical value formation. The study concludes that strengthening Islamic financial literacy and self-control is essential to ensure that the use of electronic money remains aligned with Shariah principles and promotes responsible consumption behavior among Generation Z.
