This paper aims to investigate the effect of digital zakat and accounting on corporate sustainability, in addition to examining the moderating effect of financial transparency. A quantitative survey was employed to collect data from 298 Malaysian specialists using questionnaires on a 289-5th point Likert scale. The study utilized Smart-PLS 4.0 and SEM-PLS for the analysis of the data. The analysis revealed that digital accounting adoption was found to significantly and positively influence corporate sustainability. Integration of digital Zakat was also shown to have a substantial positive impact on corporate sustainability, aligning philanthropy with sustainability goals and enhancing overall corporate sustainability outcomes. Moreover, financial transparency was confirmed to play a crucial moderating role in strengthening the relationships between digital practices and corporate sustainability. Financial transparency positively influences corporate sustainability efforts by providing stakeholders with clear insights into a company's financial commitment to sustainability initiatives. This paper offers practical insights into the interconnected dynamics of digital accounting adoption, financial transparency, corporate sustainability, and digital Zakat integration. The findings of this study offer valuable practical implications for both scholars and practitioners in the fields of digital accounting and corporate sustainability, enhanced corporate sustainability through digital accounting adoption, and integrating digital zakat for sustainable philanthropy. By heeding these implications, both scholars and practitioners can work towards more responsible and sustainable business practices, fostering a positive impact on society and the environment while also building trust and confidence among stakeholders.

This paper seeks to explore the potential of digital accounting and digital zakat in enhancing corporate sustainability. It primarily examines the role of these digital modalities in enhancing philanthropic contributions, improving financial transparency, and achieving sustainability goals. The study explores the synergistic effects of combining digital accounting and digital zakat, and aims to fill the knowledge gap regarding their collective impact on sustainable business practices. The results confirm the primary hypothesis and show a positive correlation with corporate sustainability. Consistent with previous research, digital zakat is identified as a catalyst for stakeholder engagement and a facilitator of sustainable development initiatives. Similarly, digital accounting is associated with increased financial transparency, thereby strengthening corporate sustainability efforts. These findings underscore the need for further exploration and integration into corporate strategies and highlight the prospects of digital technology in strengthening corporate sustainability. The study provides strategic recommendations for businesses, policymakers, and academics to promote sustainable practices and align financial systems with broader sustainability goals. This research is central to deepening the understanding of digital technologies' ability to enhance sustainability in business contexts, and future studies should extend these findings to examine the complex dynamics of how digital solutions can optimize sustainability in different sectors and settings.

Earnings management (EM) firms produce less predictable accounting earnings that do not reflect the company's genuine financial success. However, EM is regarded as one of the most significant issues regarding financial reporting, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, this paper aims to investigate the effect of corporate governance mechanisms on earnings management in Malaysian manufacturing companies (MMCs). Data was collected from 2010 to 2019 for MMCs. By highlighting the updating of corporate governance rules, the market value and competitiveness of institutions will improve. Moreover, this paper provides evidence of the effect of corporate governance on earnings management. Therefore, the results may help policymakers to take a new approach to the development of corporate governance instructions, and stakeholders, which would enhance earnings quality and improve the quality of financial reports. This could help them build a more comprehensive picture of the firm and improve the decision-making process.

The aim of this study is to identify the influence of Financial Technology (FinTech) on profitability in Jordanian commercial banks. The convenience sample was surveyed using a descriptive cross-sectional approach. Questionnaires were used to collect the data. The study population consists of commercial banks. The tool was sent to employees of all Jordanian commercial banks through email, Facebook and Twitter in order to meet the researchers' target sample size of at least 381 participants. The data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 24. The results showed an impact of financial technology (financing, money transfers and lending) on banks' profitability. The results of this study demonstrate that the adoption of FinTech solutions by banks has a significant impact on their profitability and position. Financing, money transfer and lending are crucial in determining a bank's profitability and overall success. Therefore, this study contributed to the growth of a new model that connects financial technology through financing, money transfers and lending to profitability and it added many topics related to financial accounting technology for increasing profitability in Jordanian commercial banks.

In an era where organizations are increasingly recognizing the paramount importance of addressing societal and environmental concerns, corporate social responsibility (CSR) has emerged as a pivotal facet of contemporary business practices. Within the banking sector, Islamic banks assume a significant role in advocating ethical and socially responsible conduct. This study delves into the impact of the board of directors' characteristics on corporate social responsibility disclosures (CSRD) within Jordanian Islamic banks. Data were meticulously gathered from three Jordanian Islamic banks, all of which are listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE), over the span of the years 2010 to 2022. Our findings illuminate that Jordanian Islamic banks, on average, disclose 47 percent of their CSR endeavors, marking a commendable level of transparency, particularly when contrasted with less developed economies. Notably, independent directors comprise 42% of the board composition, with the average age of board members standing at 41 years. Moreover, 8.10% of board members hold degrees in finance and accounting, while 0.24% possess professional experience within the Big Four accounting firms. On average, Jordanian Islamic banks convene 10.27 board meetings annually, and 48% of directors maintain multiple directorships. Significantly, our analysis underscores that all examined characteristics of board members have a favorable influence on CSR disclosure within Jordanian Islamic banks. This paper constitutes a substantial contribution to the extant literature by providing empirical substantiation of the nexus between the board of directors' characteristics and CSRD in Jordanian Islamic banks, with a specific emphasis on the unique domain of Islamic banking, which has hitherto received limited scholarly attention. Further avenues of research are recommended to explore additional variables and delve deeper into the intricate interplay between board characteristics, external contextual factors, and the disclosure of CSR activities.

The paper aims to explore the mediating effect of green culture (GC) on the relationship between Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) and Green Sustainable Performance (GSP) in small and medium logistics companies in Jordan. With increasing attention to environmental issues and sustainability becoming crucial for the future of the logistics sector, GHRM practices are gaining importance in enhancing sustainable performance. This study focuses on how promoting GC within organizations can strengthen the effectiveness of GHRM initiatives to achieve better sustainable outcomes. A quantitative research method was used to gather data from SME logistics companies in Jordan through structured questionnaires. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS-29 and Smart PLS4. The results show that GHRM practices have a significant positive impact on GSP in Jordanian SME logistics companies. Key components of GHRM, such as green recruitment and selection, green training and development, and green reward and compensation, were found to be strong predictors of GSP. Furthermore, GC was identified as a mediator between GHRM practices and GSP, showing that GHRM practices contribute to the development of a GC in these organizations. The findings also reveal that a strong GC fully mediates the relationship between GHRM practices and sustainable performance, emphasizing the importance of cultivating a robust GC to enhance the positive effects of GHRM on organizational sustainability. These results provide insights for addressing gaps in sustainable practices within the logistics sector and offer recommendations for managers looking to implement green initiatives in their companies.
