Perspectives

on Islamic

Economics

The present collection of articles comprises studies undertaken by the author during his stay in Saudi Arabia.As these studies were undertaken in different times,repetition was unavoidable But the collection is useful and comprehensive in as much as the author dealt with value perspective in Islamic Economic s in a lucid and clear style.A reader who is uninitiated into ideological underpinnings of Islamic Economics will find the collection eminently useful in broadening his understanding of the subject.The author has also selected some areas where the application of Islamic Economics and its principles are likely to produce the greatest impact  on the basic economics challenge of modern societies.

The usefulness of the collection may be emphasised in view of the fact that few such comprehensive treatments of the values and precepts of Islamic Economics and its application is available in any single book in English.However since these researches were undertaken,Islamic Economics has made commendable advances in the academic and analytical studies published in subsequent articles written by reputed Islamic Economists.But most of the later publication appear to assume minimum knowledge of the value perspectives of Islamic Economics on the part of the reader.In this respect this book is designed to fulfill the gap .We recommend the study of this book to all new entrants in the study of Islamic Economics.
