Khudi aur Nizam Iqtisad wa Ma'ash (Ego and the Economic System)
Paper presented to the National Symposium on Teachings of the Prophet, 1403 A.H. Using Iqbal’s terminology of ego (khudi) explains that the production, consumption and distribution of wealth in Islam follows a moral code which aims at not only alleviation of want but also construction of character and personality of individuals. A highly thought-provoking paper. Meant for general readers but has a message for Muslim economists.
