Political authority in Islam

Muqtedar Khan

Chapter 26 in Handbook on Islam and Economic Life, 2014, pp iii-iii from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Handbook on Islam and Economic Life is a unique study, one of the first of its kind to consider Islam within a broader economic sphere. Covering a wide breadth of topics and research, it explores how Islam impinges upon and seeks to shape major aspects of economic life including economic organisation, business and management, finance and investment, charity, mutuality and self-help, and government. It concludes by analysing the link between religion and development, the present economic situation in Arab countries and the causes of underdevelopment in Muslim countries.
