The rise of digital technology has created novel forms of wealth, exemplified by monetized accounts such as those on YouTube, TikTok, AdSense blogs, and online marketplaces that generate passive income. This study investigates the legal status of such digital monetization assets within the framework of Islamic inheritance law, assessing their classification as inheritable wealth based on economic value, utility, and transferability. Employing a normative juridical method with a qualitative Maslahah Mursalah approach, the research analyzes conflicts between Sharia-based inheritance rights and the restrictive ownership policies of digital platforms. Findings indicate that while platforms often control account access, the associated economic benefits constitute legitimate inheritance. The principle of Maslahah Mursalah is applied to prioritize communal benefit, ensuring income continuity for heirs, preventing familial disputes, and safeguarding economic rights. The study proposes a Syariah-Technology authority reconstruction model, which emphasizes the inheritance of benefit rights, the appointment of a digital executor, and the synchronization of payment systems. This model seeks to harmonize Islamic legal principles with existing platform regulations. Consequently, the research provides a jurisprudential foundation for inheriting digital assets and offers practical solutions to the legal and technical challenges posed by the digital economy.
