اقتصاديات الدولة عند الإمام الشاطبي

Abstract EN

This article deals with the ideas of Imam Al-Shatibi in the field of political economy, as the Imam made a new foundational proposition through his theories in the philosophy of Sharia.

So, he explained and analyzed fundamental and important issues in contemporary political economics, as he had the unique opinions preceded by theorists of modern economics.

Among the most important issues in this article is the teleological view of the economy of Al-Shatibi, through the emphasis of Sharia law on the preservation of wealth, which is a necessary human need, and the relationship of Sharia philosophy to the economic thought of Al-Shatibi.

Al-Shatibi also explained important and fundamental issues in the economy, such as taking into account production and distribution goals, achieving economic justice and rationalizing consumption, regulating the market and combating monopoly, achieving a balance between public and private interests and finally the issue of imposing exceptional taxes when it is necessary.
