Synopsis

This is the long-awaited translation of Nizam-e-Rabbubiyat (1955) by the Pakistani thinker G.A. Parwez, a powerful treatise on the subject of economics, and possibly his most important work. Originally written to address communism as well as capitalism, its warnings and recommendations remain wholly relevant to the prevailing economic conditions of the twenty-first century. Parwez presents an alternative economic solution to capitalism and socialism, taken directly from the Qur’an. In outlining the Qur’anic ‘system of sustenance’, he boldly challenges the accepted norms regarding the individual and society. But this alternative goes far beyond the pale of economy. It claims to meet both the material and spiritual needs of human beings – thereby encompassing their entire individual and social existence. He argues that the Qur’an alone offers humanity material advancement without decadence, and spiritual advancement without dogmatism. A must-read for all students of economics and religion.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

G.A. Parwez (1903-1985) was born in British India. The grandson of a Sufi master, Parwez possessed expert knowledge in the beliefs and practices of traditional Islam. Through his own independent study he came to understand that the Islam of today has little to do with the Islam presented in the Qur’an. His numerous titles bear testimony to a man who was open-minded, a rationalist in his approach, who genuinely cared about humanity, and above all, was absolutely committed to finding the truth.
