Subject : The Ethical Rules for Research in Islamic Economics 
Document Language : English 
Abstract : Research in Islamic economics is still at a nascent state. It is confined mainly to banking and finance, preoccupied primarily with getting around the Quranic prohibition on riba and utilizing zakat and waqf as public sector resources. These is hardly any research on comparative analysis of investor’s satisfaction for choosing Islamic banking over non-Islamic banking or other broader economic issues under the two system. Research in Islamic economics ought to focus on the fundamental goals of an Islamic society in material as well as non-material terms. The ethical standards call for getting the priorities right in selecting the research agenda. For this it is necessary to be clear about what an Islamic economy is all about and how it is different from a non-Islamic economy. It is best achieved, this paper argues, by constructing a comprehensive analytical framework where material and non-material elements are integrated both in formulating the objective function to be optimized, implementing the activities to achieve them and evaluating the results of the effort. Such a tentative framework is presented with a simple diagram and some explanatory notes. A number of gaps in existing Islamic research are identified. To put Islamic economic research on the right track three main action programs are recommended for OIC, IDB and King Abdul Aziz University.
