Abstract EN

The present paper is an attempt to correct Timur Kuran on various issues related to the genesis of Islamic economics.

It demonstrates that "Islamic economics" is not a product of twentieth century.

The term may be new but its origins go back to early period of Islam.

Its evolution up to the present state of a distinguished discipline can be divided into six distinct phases.

The paper argues that the modern Islamic economics was never a sectarian subject.

Nor was it developed for Muslims' identity and protection purpose.

Scholars of different regions and of diverse affiliations promoted it and its propounders aimed at the well-being of all
