Material type:
TextPublisher: New York: Cambridge University Press, 2021Description: 323 p., 24 cmSubject(s): Summary: "Economic thought in Islamic tradition is not about economics as we understand it in modern terms, with respect to material prosperity, economic development, and consumption and transfer of wealth. In fact, one could state that economic thought analyzed by classical Muslim scholars is the least concerned with such pursuits. Rather, it pertains to much broader human and Divine relations, as well as behavioural patterns of spiritual, metaphysical, and above all, moral qualities, irreducible only to the natural order"-- Provided by publisher.
