Although their contribution to positive economic development is significant, empirical studies show that this sector faces challenges in accessing external financing to sustain their operations. Consequently, there is a need for an innovative alternative financing mechanisms to improve micro-enterprises’ access to external capital. This study examines the external financial challenges encountered by micro-enterprises, proposes Islamic crowdfunding as a sustainable source of financing, and assesses the readiness of micro-enterprises towards the proposed model. The findings indicate that micro-enterprises face various financial constraints, including high interest rates, stringent documentation requirements, demanding collateral conditions, insufficient financing amounts, lengthy loan durations, and the inherent nature of their businesses. The findings reveal a generally positive level of readiness among micro-enterprises, with a stronger preference for donation- and reward-based Islamic crowdfunding models. Moreover, the results indicate that if Islamic crowdfunding can stimulate local economic activity and support the provision of business capital, it will significantly enhance micro-enterprises’ willingness to adopt it. In turn, these insights can help the Terengganu state government craft more sustainable and viable financing strategies to support micro-enterprises in securing external funds. The study also positions Terengganu to become a pioneering state in empowering micro-enterprises through an Islamic crowdfunding approach.</jats:p>msPerusahaan mikroSumber kewanganPengaksesan kewanganPendanaan awam IslamikSumber kewangan alternatifjournal-article143171303
