Synopsis

Contends that the Islamic economic order has the potential of ushering the resources to build a free and responsible world for everyone.The contemporary economic systems have failed to solve the economic problems of mankind. The failure of socialism is too obvious to need any documentation. The track record of capitalism is far from being promising. Although a small minority has achieved unprecedently high material standards of living, a vast majority lives under conditions of abject poverty. The problems of unemployment, inflation, poverty amidst affluence, unequal distribution of wealth, frequent bouts of business recession, environmental pollution, and ecological imbalance still bedevil man's present life and threaten his future. The present book contends that the Islamic economic order has the potential of ushering in an age of human bliss; and the resources to build a free, just and responsible world for everyone on the earth.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Muhammad Akram Khan KCSI (1868 1907), was the ruler of the Indian princely state of Amb from 1877 until his death in 1907. The son of Jehandad Khan, he was only nine years old when his father died, and there were fears that Madad Khan, the ruling Khan of Phulra, might assert a claim.[1] He built the fort at Shergarh, as well as those at Dogah and Shahkot. His rule was a peaceful time for Tanawal, with no major conflicts. As well as being appointed a knight commander of the Order of the Star of India, he also received from the British Crown the title of Nawab Bahadur[2] and this title was eventually granted to his descendants in perpetuity. The Imperial Gazetteer of India reported that in 1901 Amb had an area of 204 square miles and a population of 31,622.[3] He should not be confused with Muhammad Akram Khan (1817 1852), one of the sons of Dost Mohammad Khan, Emir of Afghanistan.[4
