The Fiqh and Ethics of Business
About The Course
Business transactions are unavoidable in today’s world. Whether they be in the form of the traditional hand to hand transactions or the prevalent modes of ecommerce consisting of on-line trading’, ‘on-line shopping’ and ‘e-shopping. . The importance of transparency in transactions accompanied with justice and honesty are deeply rooted in the functioning of the Islamic doctrine. The longest verse of the glorious Quran, verse 282 of Surah Al-Baqarah also explicitly outlines statutes for handling a transaction within the Islamic framework. Similarly, there are verses dispersed across the Quran which explicitly outline essential rules pertaining to business ethics.
With such compelling and indispensable guidance, ignorance in this regard is one’s own downfall and consequently the loss of an entire community. AlBalagh Academy is offering a unique comparative and analytical course catered at unmasking the crucial principals of business and ethics which when compounded together, complement our understanding of the intimate relationship between business jurisprudence and Islamic work ethics.
