Abstract

This study discusses the main ideas in carrying out economic activities carried out by the community in accordance with Islamic teachings developed by the thought of Ibn Taimiyah who is famous for the al-ruju' ila Al-Qur'an movement (back to the source of Islamic teachings, namely the Al-Qur'an). 'an 'an and As-sunnah), which Ibn Taimiyah's thoughts provide solutions to the state in building development morality by making people aware that morals and ethics are important in carrying out economic activities. The purpose of this research is to provide an overview of the main things that must be present when you want to carry out economic activities in accordance with Islamic views. As for this study, we used a descriptive literature research method that included the main ideas about Islamic economics in terms of Ibn Taimiyah's thoughts and the principles of economic activity according to Islamic teachings. Because when someone wants to carry out economic activities, the main thing that must be done is to include Islamic economic principles in these activities because economic activities are not directly related to someone. In carrying out economic activities, one must be able to understand and also apply the principles or rules that have been established in Islamic teachings. So things that are not desirable, such as the existence of a monopoly, are the goals of Islamic economic thought according to Ibn Taimiyah.
