New paradigm concept of economic growth in islamic perspective

Abstract

It cannot be denied that economic growth has a positive impact on people's lives. On the contrary, economic growth also negatively impacts the socio-economic condition of the society, namely the emergence of social imbalance, welfare and injustice. This is due to the concept of economic growth in the present orientation that is emphasized only on the material aspect, thus ignoring the basic essence of humanity itself as social and religious beings. Generally the various concepts of economic growth are applied always oriented to the thinking of western scholars, both in theory and model. Various literatures on economic growth in the concept of Islam are still limited in the scope of universities. So reference references in studying the concept of economic growth always refer to the literature of western economist thought. If this continues, it is likely that the problem in trying to solve the concept of economic growth that is relevant and realistic, especially for Muslims to achieve prosperity will not be realized comprehensively.
