Abstract
Man-made crises and disasters prove to be an opportunity from which mankind can benefit and take lesson to learn to be conscious of Allah’s blessings and care for its rights. One of these lessons that we came to realize is that capitalism is naturally driven by selfish profit maximization actions. This ‘oppression of freedom’ and economic hegemony has led to environmental problems, which pose threats to humankind livelihood. In this light, the circular economy tends emerges to alleviate this oppression, preserve the rights of others, and protect the environment. Undoubtedly, the principles of circular economy coincide with Islamic economic theory. This paper endeavour to study Circular economy in relation to Islamic economy and its principles, in two chapters. The first chapter will be on “Defining Circular economy, concept, goals and benefits”, and the second chapter will be discussing Circular economy in Quran, Sunna and Maqasid.
