Includes bibliographical references
The subject matter of all economics, irrespective of whether it is mainstream or Islamic, is the allocation and distribution of scarce resources which have unlimited uses. However, precisely because of the scarcity of resources and their alternative uses, it is not every allocation and distribution which is acceptable to society. Hence economics has also been directly or indirectly involved in a discussion of human well-being, to be realized through an improvement in the allocation and distribution of resources in conformity with the social vision.
