About This Book
The present contribution to the economic theory of Islam is timely. The
material civilization of The West has brought about, on the one hand, a
state of chaos in international relations, and, on the other, a class-war
within every nation. The war in the social domain has divided The West
into two camps. While in most Western countries capitalism has the upper
hand and labor is the victim of tyranny Russia has gone to the other extreme,
and only one class, that of the workers, seems to be dominant. Islam maintains
the balance between exaggerated opposites and occupies intermediate position
between the doctrines of bourgeois capitalism and Bolshevist communism.
