Description: This book provides an economic analysis of the earliest Islamic society, focusing on the policies of the Messenger of Islam (Sawa) and his successors during the first four formative decades of Islam. Two institutions of great importance -- the market and the public treasury (Baitul Mal) -- and their roles in the development of the private and public sectors are particularly emphasized in this study.
