ESTABLISHING THE SCIENTIFIC BASIS OF ISLAMIC ECONOMICS: It is evident from the above discussion that those who criticize the development of Islamic economics, do so because of their lack of understanding the fact that economics is a mature and normal science.
a) The Structure of the Ecomnmlc Science: Given that economics is a mature and normal science the scientific basis of our efforts to develop Islamic economics lies in the fact that the paradigm of Islamic economics is different from the other paradigms of as.
This micro- foundations’ link between human behavior (in an Islamic society) and the Shari‘ah paradigm, is the scientific basis of our efforts to develop the Islamic economic system.
Thus Islamic economics deserves to be developed in its own right as its scientific structure uses a paradigm which is different from the market economy paradigm of the conventional economics.
The behavior of the Muslim man, serving as the basis of the microfoundations, leads to the Shari’ah paradigm of Islamic economics.
We have shown that Islamic economics is founded on sound scientific bases, therefore, the efforts to develop the Shari‘ah paradigm are scientifially justified.
We have also shown that Islamic economics has a complete scientific structure; namely, it has its own philosophic foundations, a scientific basis for its microfoundations, and the Shari‘ah paradigm.
Therefore, we argue that it is this difference in the bases of the microfoundations of the three systems, that is our scientific basis to develop the Shari‘ah paradigm of Islamic economics.
