Why study “Islam and Business”?.

Islamic Jurisprudence (Fiqh).

Fiqh includes categories that regulate human behavior in society and relation to God. Thus, the behavior of faithful can range from what is forbidden (haram) to obligatory (Fard), going through disapproved (makruh), neutral (mubah) or recommended (tahabb).

The Five Pillars of Islam (Profession of Faith, Prayer, Charity (Zakat), Fasting, Pilgrimage to Mecca) mark the obligations (Fard) of a Muslim.

According to Sharia (and country), flout of any of these obligations may be a legal offence or crime.
