This research explores the concept of accounting information quality and its characteristics, emphasizing its importance for various levels of management and users in Islamic banks. It also examines the concept, types, and significance of Sharia auditing, addressing internal and external aspects alongside the criteria for measuring its effectiveness. Additionally, the study investigates mechanisms to enhance Sharia auditing performance in Islamic banks. Employing a descriptive, theoretical approach based on prior studies, the research highlights the integral role of high-quality accounting information in improving the effectiveness of Sharia auditing. Accurate and reliable accounting data enable Sharia auditors to fulfill their tasks efficiently, aligning with the objectives of Sharia auditing. The study also emphasizes that Islamic banks rely on quality accounting information for informed decision-making. Key elements such as the independence of Sharia auditors, technical and professional competence, and due diligence are crucial to evaluating Sharia auditing effectiveness. Enhancing Sharia auditing performance requires strengthening the roles of internal and external Sharia auditors, implementing robust policies and evaluation procedures, and ensuring auditor independence. The study recommends that Islamic banks be mandated to provide external Sharia auditing services, invest in the professional development of their workforce, and upgrade accounting information systems to meet the dynamic needs of Sharia auditing.
