This study aims to analyze the integration of the Indonesian Islamic stock index with the Islamic stock index of developed and developing countries. Using a vector error correction model and daily data from 2012 to 2021, which reached 2088, the observations reveal that the Indonesian Islamic stock index is integrated with the Islamic stock index of developed and developing countries. The Indonesian Islamic stock index responded positively and negatively to the developed and developing Islamic stock index.
