Islamic Economic Development, Plicy & Public Finance & Sustainable Development by Monzer Kahf Pdf
This is the fourth in a series of four books on Notes on Islamic Economics. It deals with three important subjects: 1) the Money and development theory in Islamic economics, 2) Islamic public finance, and 3) sustainable development in the Muslim countries. In part one, we discuss the Islamic development theory, money as a central issue in development and inflation. This part consists of chapters one to seven. Chapter one deals with the Islamic theory of economic development, chapter two deals with the role of government in economic development, chapter three deals with money in Islamic economics, chapter four discusses inflation, chapter five discusses economic policy and its tools Islamic economics and chapters six and seven deal with issues of privatization in Islamic perspectives. Part two consists of five chapters; eight through twelve and deals with public finance and part three deals with sustainable development for the Muslim countries in chapters thirteen through sixteen. The conclusion of this book looks for the future of Islamic economics. The theme of my argument in all of them is that the Islamic system looks at economic development is a process determined by the institutional set up of a society which is changeable only by changing the value/cultural system of the society. The religion of Islam attempts to implant values conducive to development and prepares human beings to undertake necessary changes which bring about economic progressiveness. Besides, there are many similarities between Islamic and conventional economics when it comes to the general objectives and approaches while a number of details differ considerably.
This is the second book of the series Notes on Islamic Economics. Its subject is the charitable sector. The third sector has a special important role in the Islamic economic system because of the fundamental concern Islam gives to justice and how it is applied in a free-will private-ownership based economy. The pursuit of personal economic welfare and maximization of profit associated with exchange-based market relationships are always based on self-interest which classical Islamic Scholars expressed as "exchange contracts are founded on greed The Islamic approach to reconcile economic freedom, greed in exchange and private ownership on one hand with economic equitable distribution, respect and honor of human beings and social coherence on the other hand is two folds, personal moral and societal law-regulated. The moral emphasis on the inner screen in the Islamic economic system is significant. We've seen in book one of this series that the Islamic moral ethical system gives a special weight to the inner screen through channeling selfishness into a canal of altruism so that to maximize one's own outcome of economic decisions one has to include the quantity of Hasanat one accumulates. Caring about others and gracing them with one's own wealth becomes a selfish way to gain more rewards expressed as Hasanat. Some vague and non-articulated version of this concept exists in other monotheistic religions. The second tool incorporated by the Islamic economic system for reconciling selfishness with giving others is the legal and social pressure. Through its legal and social system Islam is the only religion which literally assigns part of the wealth of the rich to the poor and backs that by creating a social and community pressure to establish endowments for the purpose of economic equity.The obligation of Zakah and the encouragement, expansion, protection and regulation of Awqaf are unique to the Islamic economic system. This is why this book is important and this is why the third charitable sector has special significance in the Islamic economic system. This book discusses the three pillars of charity in Islam: the obligatory Zakah, the voluntary but substantial Awqaf and the voluntary Infaq or general charity. The first six chapters discuss the different aspects of Zakah. Four chapters, seven to ten, are assigned to discussing the different aspect of Awqaf beginning with its historical and Shari'ah aspects, important role in Welfare, the different facets of reforms which are necessary to allow the Awqaf institution to assume its role in the economies of Muslim countries, etc.The last chapter tries to show the place general charity or 'Infaq fi Sabili Allah' assumes in the Islamic economic system.In this book as in other books of this series I do not intend to repeat other writings. This series is an attempt to present Islamic economics in a non-traditional way with emphasis on the institutional aspects and structure. I will deal with the fundamental issues of Islamic economics and finance in a realistic yet innovative manner while observing fundamental relations, ties and inspiration from the basic sources of the Islamic religion and its Shari'ah rulings; the Qur'an and the Sunnah.
What Is Wrong with Islamic Economics? by Muhammad Akram Khan Pdf
ÔI read with great interest the current state of Islamic economics and finance as examined by Muhammad Akram Khan, who has given a fresh outlook for the readers to find out its limitations and to search for its solutions. Khan has read widely in the subject matter, and presented his views with reference to literature and thoughtful and logical arguments. While many may not agree with his arguments or will have a better explanation, I find his arguments at least worthy of examination to strengthen the arguments of those who might oppose him. Although Khan is critical of the subject matter, he is very sympathetic to the greater objectives of Islamic economics and provides his own prescriptions to achieve those objectives.Õ Ð M. Kabir Hassan, University of New Orleans, US ÔThis is a very thought provoking book coming at a crucial stage in the development of Islamic economics and finance. Although the reader may not agree with some of the conclusions reached, it is clearly a scholarly and extensively researched piece of work; it should be read by all serious students of the subject area. Amongst other things, it throws light on the reasons why the practical implementation of Islamic economics and finance, particularly in relation to the financial system and financial institutions, has not always conformed to the true theoretical foundations laid down by Islamic scholars.Õ Ð John Presley, Loughborough University, UK and recipient of Islamic Development Bank Prize in Islamic Finance, 2001Ð2002 ÔÒIslamic economic system is a type of capitalism with a spiritual dimensionÓ is a major conclusion of this book. I applaud this insight of Muhammad Akram Khan. The same can be perhaps said of Islamic finance, which, in its hurry to build viable and efficient financial institutions, has ignored the very same need to start with profits-and-risk-sharing principle and no-riba principles to build pricing models to anchor the new sub-discpline. The good news is that, in the course of time to come, AkramÕs advocacy may be realised since such serious works have already begun.Õ Ð Mohamed Ariff, University Putra Malaysia and Bond University, Australia ÔAlthough there are many books on Islamic economics, this critical, but sympathetic, account by Muhammad Akram Khan is worthy of attention. The author has clearly read widely on the subject and appreciates the limitations of much that he has read. Islamic economics is a work in progress and by focusing on its shortcomings, Khan challenges the assumptions of many working in the field. His discussion of methodology is insightful, and even the prohibition of riba, for many the defining characteristic of Islamic finance, is examined from a fresh perspective. While many will not agree with the analysis and the conclusions, even critics should be able to appreciate the strengths of the arguments made. In summary this is a worthwhile, and in many respects an innovative, survey of the state of Islamic economics and finance. It deserves to be widely read.Õ Ð Rodney Wilson, Durham University, UK What is Wrong with Islamic Economics? takes an objective look at the state of the art in Islamic economics and finance. It analyses reasons for perceived stagnation and also suggests a way forward. As well as probing various myths, the book presents several innovative ideas and a methodology for developing the subject on new foundations. It also highlights weaknesses in the conventional position on prohibition of interest, which has led Islamic banks devise a series of legal tricks. The author notes how the original aim of devising a new brand of banking has become less prominent whilst Islamic banks now position themselves more closely to conventional banks. The book also offers insights into how certain traditional thinking has seemingly ignored the egalitarian spirit of the law of zakah and created a scenario where zakah is not able to help the billions of poor people around the globe. This detailed book will appeal to students, professors, researchers, Islamic banks and finance houses, consulting companies, accounting firms, and regulatory bodies. Professional economists, libraries in research and training organizations, as well as anyone with a general interest in the topic will find much to interest them.

Islamic Economics by Taha Eğri,Necmettin Kizilkaya Pdf
Studies conducted in the field of Islamic economics lose their relevance over time. Works examining Islamic economics since the 1970s have been co-opted by the existing economic system and have become limited to a large extent, as they are now only concerned with financial transactions. In fact, ""Islamic economics"" as a concept should actually be conceptualized as an alternative economic system. However, because of the financial and commercial transactions implemented in daily economic life ...
This book deals with an old subject, Islamic Finance contracts. Yet, it is very new and unique in its approach, ideas and arguments. The book classifies Islamic finance contracts in three categories; classical nominate, traditional hybrid and new hybrid contracts. The uniqueness of the book comes from its approach of blending the legal (Shari'ah) description, conditions and requirements of each Islamic Finance contract with economic and financial analysis of the circumstances within which the contract fits. The Book also puts a special emphasis on the financial consequences of each of the Islamic finance contracts and always compares Islamic finance contracts with their conventional counterparts. This book is a serious attempt to formulate the main elements of a general theory of Islamic finance which is internally coherent and consistent with other components of Islamic economics. The book consists of seventeen chapters. The first three chapters lay down the foundations of finance contracts in the Islamic system. They discuss the general tenets of ownership and property, conditions of acquision, components, conditions and categories of Islamic finance contracts and the characteristics of return-earning in the Islamic economic system. In these chapters I emphasize the main contribution of Islamic finance in broadening the definition of finance itself and relating its earning to wealth creation in the real market of goods and services. This is compared with conventional finance in which the earning is an increment in debts or merely wealth transfer rather than wealth creation. Chapters four through eight deal with the basic nominate Islamic finance contracts; sale, leasing and sharing and other nominate side-contracts including contributoty and earnest money (Arbun) contracts. Chapters ten through thirteen are devoted to hybrid contracts used in Islamic banks today. These include Murabahah, parallel Salam, parallel Istisna', lease ending with ownership, letters of guarantee, promises and mutual promises, walalah Istithmar, etc. Chapters fourteen to sixteen deal with Islamic finance contracts used for specific objectives. They study contracts of personal finance, contracts of projects and infrastructure and contracts of liquidity management. Finally chapter seventeen discusses Islamic finance contracts and the law including judiciary cases that make precedents.
