Abstract

Islamic economics is a discipline that studies economics from an Islamic point of view,
incorporating its own norms and values that dictate individual and social economic attitudes. It cannot be
considered independently of other fields, such as law, politics, history, and sociology, and most importantly,
the moral structure. The goal of economic development is to improve the welfare level and provide an
environment of trust. However, the level of economic success has been unilaterally associated only with
material factors, ignoring moral and ethical values. In this study, we explore the basic conceptual framework
and scope of Islamic economics and emphasize the importance of an understanding of economic growth and
development that encompasses all world markets. By considering the concepts of innovative, entrepreneurial,
justice, and morality in a holistic way, a change can be achieved. The article provides a historical account of
the emergence and development of Islamic economics, and the deep relationship between economics and
Islam. The article argues that the capitalist system is dominant and moral values are ignored, and therefore,
studies on the relationship between religion, culture, and economy, especially in the axis of economics, are
prioritized and increased in recent years
