The Quran & Economy: Why Faith and Finance Are Deeply Connected

Sinar Daily

Many people still think the Quran only speaks about faith, morals and spirituality, but as Chief Content Officer of Warisan Ummah Ikhlas Foundation Fazrul Ismail emphasises, the Quran shapes every aspect of life, including the economy.  From zakat to Hajj, from how we work to how we raise our families, every command requires understanding, responsibility and yes, financial readiness.  Economy isn’t separate from religion, it is the medium that allows us to practice what Allah commands.  This year’s theme for the World Quran Convention (WQC) highlights exactly that: economic strength, financial resilience and the Quranic principles that guide a thriving, dignified and empowered Muslim society.

00:00if you don't have money you don't you can pay zakah you cannot go to hajj

00:05yeah i love the fact that this year's theme is on economy and um economy economy and also

00:12financial resilience for the future and things like that because um people always say oh the

00:18quran is for religion for morals for beliefs if i don't have i i'm not that strong in my belief

00:24semua so like but people forget that it's in every aspect of your life right like every single

00:31aspect how to raise your children how to talk to your parents and the most important is how to do

00:36business and how to do how to run the economy in fact uh and we're talking about the the command

00:41from allah in quran right for example uh we can talk uh economic and financial related to uh zakah

00:49for example for hajj because you need to prepare 15 000 in your account just to appeal for the

00:54hajj right that is really direct about money but people don't think about sometime when i was uh

01:01interacting with quran uh for example salah when we pray right sometimes we cannot connect between

01:08prayer and also economy yes but in fact when we want to pray we have our clothing yes we need to buy

01:15the clothing right we need to have money but more than that if you want to uh pray in congregation in

01:19the masjid masjid it's not built by by by by what what for free for free we need to have so much

01:27money to have the engineer the architect to plan the uh the the the the building itself so all those

01:34reflecting to the economy exactly but the economy is the medium to practice and do whatever commanded by

01:43allah if you don't have money you don't you can pay zakah you cannot go to hajj and this is the idea

01:51that we want to share in this quran convention the idea of economy and how the muslim need to have the

01:58right idea from quran so that we can regroup reconnect and to support each other uh in term of economy so that

02:06our economy will raise up and we will be another nation who can we are not to to subjugate other

02:13country we are to help other people by being good in economy
