The expansion of the digital economy has transformed the operational landscape of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), encouraging businesses to adopt more efficient and responsive production systems. However, many MSMEs continue to rely on stock-based production models that often result in overproduction, dead stock, inventory costs, and intense price competition due to uncertainty in market demand. This study examines the transformation of MSME production models from stock-based systems to demand-driven approaches through the implementation of pre-order mechanisms within the framework of Islamic microeconomics. Employing a qualitative descriptive method based on literature review and comparative analysis of conventional and Islamic economic perspectives, the study finds that demand-driven production supported by pre-order systems improves resource allocation, minimizes inventory risks, and enhances operational efficiency. From an Islamic economic perspective, the pre-order model aligns with the principles of salam contracts, maslahah (public benefit), tawazun (balance), and the prohibition of israf (wastefulness). However, its effectiveness depends on factors such as consumer trust, digital infrastructure, production capabilities, and product characteristics. Overall, the study concludes that pre-order-based production provides a sustainable and Sharia-compliant alternative for strengthening MSME resilience and competitiveness in the digital economy.
