ANALISIS KONSEP PEMIKIRAN EKONOMI YAHYA BIN UMAR DAN IBNU MISKAWAIH

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the economic thought concepts of two prominent figures in the Islamic intellectual tradition, Yahya bin Umar and Ibn Miskawayh. The research focuses on their contributions to Islamic economic thought, particularly in the context of justice principles, wealth distribution, and economic ethics relevant to the development of modern economic systems. Yahya bin Umar is known for his ideas on the government's role in maintaining economic balance in society, including fair pricing policies and protecting consumer rights. Meanwhile, Ibn Miskawayh offers a philosophical perspective through an ethical approach to economics, emphasizing the importance of individual moral character in achieving social welfare. The research employs a literature review method with aqualitative-descriptive approach, analyzing classical texts from both figures and relevant modern interpretations. The findings reveal that the thoughts of these two scholars are highly relevant to contemporary economic challenges, particularly in addressing social inequality, sustainable resource management, and the role of morality in economic practices. This study is expected to contribute to the development of Islamic economics in a more comprehensive and applicable manner in the modern era.
