Islam and Economics: a Study of Relations in the Perspective of Hadith

Abstract

This paper discusses the relationship between Islam and economics through the perspective of hadith, which is one of the sources of Islamic teachings. In the economic context, Islam emphasizes the values of justice, transparency, and social responsibility. Through the analysis of related hadiths, the author tries to identify the basic principles of Islamic economics, including the prohibition of usury, the obligation of zakat, and the importance of fair transactions. This paper uses a descriptive analysis method with the type of research being library research, which is utilizing the data in the library; such as books, articles, journals and other scientific papers as study materials in it. Through these methods, the authors found that religious teachings not only regulate spiritual rituals, but also create a framework for fair and ethical economic interactions. Thus, by emphasizing the need for a balance between material benefits and social welfare, Islamic teachings can be implemented in the economic practices of the community so that the economy that runs in their midst gives blessed results and is in accordance with Islamic principles. As a result, an economic approach based on Islamic principles can contribute to the creation of a more just and sustainable society.
