Abstract
The overriding objectives of Islam are the establishment of a just sociomoral order – free from all sorts of oppression, corruption and exploitation whether these elements are prompted by the business magnates, the employers or the employees; sellers or buyers; the rulers or the ruled the haves or have-nots. In order to realize these objectives, Islam lays a heavy emphasis on the psycho-moral training of the individual and the society at large. This psycho-moral training is technically known as Tazkiya (or the purification of the self from animal passions), which eventually leads to Taqwa (or God fearing attitude). In fact, the teachings of Islam boil down to two basic principles, that is, submission to God and service to humankind. This brief article is meant to identify the moral principles that are supposed to regulate the business activities of the community.
