The Name is Syariah Business

Thats true, when the Islamic world to live up to the order since the time of the Prophet Muhammad until collapse of the Ottoman era Islamic Daula in 1924, never was a business term syariah or Islamic business.

It happened - simple - because the system life used is the Islamic system, not the system of capitalism or socialism is communism. So naturally, it used just 'business' because it will automatically explanation refers to the system adopted at that time.

Similarly today, if you say word 'business' without any opinion, connotation would lead to the current system is applied, then the understanding will be 'business capitalist' or 'conventional business' is definitely not far from the Syariah, or Islamic.

It's as simple as a dichotomy of 'Islamic banking' vs. 'conventional banking, ' 'Islamic education' versus 'secular education' etc. On that basis, it becomes important to use the term 'Islamic business' or 'Islamic finance' to confirm the nature of business done building and give effect to educate the public at large that we really are living in a system that is not Islamic.
