Abstract
The Islamic social and economic worldview is not pluralistic. Islam is a message to all mankind shaped by two sources: the Quran, the universally revealed word of God as revealed to the prophet Muhammad, and the sunnah, the sayings and practices of the prophet Muhammad. These two sources provide well defined principals around which social and economic order can be structured. The Islamic community must think anew in a framework of organization centered on the shura, defining policy-market interactions. In this, the science of ilm al-usul al-fiqh plays an important role in syllogistic constructionism for deriving rules from fundamental sources.
