This book compliments another book written by the same author (Islam and Business), as it is through business that Muslims are lawfully permitted to reap profits and thus acquire great wealth. This book aims to contribute in rectifying the following problems currently faced by Muslim communities in Malaysia and elsewhere: the misperception that Islam does not encourage large wealth creation or accumulation,that Muslims are generally less wealthy than non-Muslims and that still, too many wealthy Muslims do not seem to manage their wealth according to Islamic tenets.
