Islamic Work Ethics

There is a spiritual dimension of work in Islam. The Islamic ethical concepts of brotherhood, accountability in the Hereafter, halal and haram, etc. shaped the type of work undertaken by Muslims throughout history. These concepts also blossomed into various institutions and work ethics. Islamic ethics also expect women to take an active part in economic activity. In short, Islam intertwines the spiritual and mundane dimensions of work. For general readers. Philosophical. Based on primary sources. Documented.
