Abstract

Studies on the history of Islamic economics are still very rare, especially the study of Islamic economics before the Nubuwah period or the time of the appointment of the Prophet Muhammad as a Prophet and Apostle. The purpose of this study is to prove that Islamic economic civilization has existed since the time of the Prophet Adam sent by Allah to the earth. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with a research library, with a historical methodology approach. The results of the study said that Islamic economic civilization existed long before the Nubuwah era or the time of the appointment of the Prophet Muhammad SAW as a prophet and apostle. At the time of the Prophet Adam, there were very simple economic activities to meet their basic or primary needs. These economic activities are consumption, distribution and production. More and more economic functions were practiced during the time of Noah and Yunus, including the functions of transportation and trade. Even at the time of the Prophet Yusuf, there was already a supply and warehousing function. The time when Prophet Musa carried out economic activities more fully and in detail, namely when Prophet Musa a.s. met with two girls who were queuing to get their cattle to drink and then Prophet Musa offered himself as a representative (wakalah contract) to carry out the duties of the two girls. Furthermore, more intense cooperation in the field of livestock maintenance and development as employees (managers) and shahibul Maal (livestock owners). The economic functions at the time of the Prophet Muhammad were more complete, namely the functions of production, consumption, distribution, human resources and investment. Almost everything was lived by the Prophet Muhammad himself since the age of 8 years. The initial journey that the Prophet Muhammad had carried out was as a deputy at the beginning as a shepherd with a salary system, then as a mudharib in a trading business when the prophet Muhammad was not married, and then after marrying Khadijah the Prophet acted as a shahibul mall and at the same time an investor and this is when the Prophet Muhammad have a lot of time to think about the condition of society, at this time the Prophet had achieved financial freedom or freedom of money

Abstract

Jama’ah Tani Muhammadiyah (JATAM) functions as a companion and protector of farmers with the primary aim of strengthening their independence and bargaining position within the agricultural system. This study analyses the business practices of JATAM through the lens of Islamic economic law. The research focuses on identifying the business model developed by JATAM and assessing the extent to which its operational practices align with Islamic economic principles. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, using in‑depth interviews, field observations, and analysis of organisational documents and financial records. The findings show that JATAM implements a community‑based agricultural business model that collectively integrates production, capital, and marketing. JATAM acts as a facilitator by providing production inputs, offering farming assistance, and managing the distribution of agricultural products for its member farmers. This model reflects key Islamic economic principles, including the avoidance of usury, the application of profit‑sharing mechanisms, and the strengthening of mutual assistance (ta’awun). Its implementation contributes to improving farmers’ welfare, as evidenced by increased production capacity, fairer access to Sharia‑compliant capital, more equitable marketing systems, and stronger bargaining power for farmers. Despite these positive outcomes, several challenges remain, particularly in ensuring consistent adherence to Sharia principles. These challenges include weaknesses in financial documentation, limited clarity in the formulation of Sharia contracts, and the need for more professional and sustainable institutional development. The study highlights that applying Islamic economic principles within modern agricultural enterprises through community‑based institutional models such as JATAM offers a strategic pathway for strengthening the economic resilience of the ummah and empowering farmers.
