Abstract: The paper examines and analyses the economic thoughts and concepts in the Qur’an. Research tackles the economic thought associated with particular activities, such as: agriculture, livestock farming, fisheries, production, construction, maritime affairs and trade. The approaches to some important issues related to economy are also analysed (ownership, property, inheritance, obligations and contracts), and the fundamental orientation of entrepreneurship and business ethics based on the teachings of the Qur’an is also studied. In the end, the three important economic concepts in Qur’an are examined and analysed: riba, zakat and sadaqah.
