Islamic budgetary policy: In theory and practice (budgeting Policy) (Ph.D. Dissertation)

This dissertation results from the author's belief that Muslims are confused with regard to Islamic budgeting principles. The macroeconomic ideas of Islam and Islamic budgetary policy are examined. The thrust of the author's main idea is to analyze the relevant injunctions and principles and present them in a systematic way so that they may be applied to a method of budgeting that conforms with Islam. The writer underscores the fact that it is important that the problems of the Islamic economic system be properly understood and interpreted. Hence, he believes that scholars from several different fields are required to develop appropriate theories suitable to the tenets of Islam. Relevant are financial theories related to money and institutions, taxation, government finance, and fiscal policy; distribution theory and income policy; and theories of international economics.
