Abstract: More than seventy-five years have passed since writing on Islamic economic thought began in the modern period. But these works do not cover the period after the 9th AH/15th CE century. In the present work an effort has been made to investigate the state of Muslim economic thinking in the tenth century Hijrah corresponding sixteenth century CE. This period occupies great significance in the world history. In the sixteenth century the Ottomans consolidated their rule in parts of Europe and took over the custodianship of the Holy lands of Islam by abolishing the two and half a century old Mamluk Sultanate of Egypt. The beginning of century also saw the establishment of a new dynasty – Safawids – in Iran and the Mughal dynasty in India. In Europe it marked the 'first phase' of early modern era. It was a time when renaissance was already in full swing and social reform, scientific inquiry and economic thinking and institutions were taking new shapes. This situation brought both challenges and opportunities to Muslim world. However, the balance of economic potential and technological scope moved progressively in Europe's favour.
