Indonesia’s continuing urbanization provides a broader socio-demographic context for examining changes in the economic organization of Muslim households, particularly as women increasingly participate in employment, professional occupations, and public institutions. This study examines the relationship between women’s public participation and aggregate household income in Indonesia and interprets this relationship within the broader context of Muslim urban socioeconomic change through the theory of maṣlaḥah developed by ʿIzz al-Dīn ibn ʿAbd al-Salām. Using a quantitative associative design, the study analyzes secondary aggregate-level data for 2010–2024 obtained from the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics. Women’s income contribution, parliamentary representation, professional participation, and the number of Muslim women were operationalized as independent variables, while aggregate household income was the dependent variable; the number of Muslim women is used as a demographic proxy relevant to the Muslim household context. Multiple linear regression and classical assumption tests are employed to examine partial and simultaneous relationships. The results show that women’s professional participation was excluded from the final model due to multicollinearity. Women’s income contribution shows the strongest positive association with aggregate household income, while parliamentary representation and the number of Muslim women also show positive relationships; collectively, these three variables are significantly associated with aggregate household income. The empirical relationships are interpreted through Ibn ‘Abd al-Salām’s concept of maṣlaḥah, particularly its emphasis on observable and tangible benefits in human welfare. The study contributes an aggregate-level household accounting perspective connecting women’s economic, political, and social roles with Islamic legal reasoning, providing an empirical perspective on socioeconomic changes relevant to Muslim urban households in Indonesia.
