This volume presents carefully selected research by reputed
scholars on diverse topics dealing with the economic life of
Muslims. The book provides a perspective not only on key aspects of
the moral economy but also on the behaviour and expectations of
economic agents. The distinguished editors have made a valuable
contribution by expanding the scope of typical Islamic economics
literature and by including topics dealing with the day-to-day life
of Muslim society.' - Zamir Iqbal, The World Bank Global Center for
Islamic Finance DevelopmentAccording to the most recent Pew Forum
on Religion and Public Life, nearly one in four people in the world
are Muslim. In light of these numbers, Handbook on Islam and
Economic Life is one of the first books to consider Islam within a
broader economic sphere by focusing on the ways in which Islam
shapes and interacts with the economy. With contributions from
leading scholars, this unique Handbook explores how Islam impinges
upon and seeks to condition major aspects of economic life
including economic organization, business and management, finance
and investment, charity, mutuality and self-help, and government.
It concludes by analyzing the link between religion and
development, the present economic circumstances in Arab countries
and the vexed issue of the origins and causes of underdevelopment
in Muslim countries. Covering a breadth of topics and research,
this book will be essential reading for academics in both Muslim
and western universities, graduates and postgraduates of Islamic
studies as well as Islamic and other research institutes.
