إشكالية البحث في التاريخ الاقتصادي الإسلامي : التأزم و الاستقرار الاقتصادي في الغرب الإسلامي أنموذجا

Abstract EN

The different Muslim sources contain rich information relating to économic facts and events.

One can mention particularly the annals, the books of hisba and the books of fatwa gathering the legal opinions issued by the Muslim jurisprudence specialists The problem that arises in historical scientific research is how to look at economic issues and project the terms of economic terminology on the traditional expressions of the middle Ages or at least bring them closer together.

The crisis and economic prosperity will be the subject of this study.

The term “crisis” does not appear in Muslim sources.

Arab Lexical dictionaries generally indicated this by the deprivation or suffering that affects groups and individuals.

but in A rare fact It is found in a hadith attributed to the prophet.

Mecca then suffered the detrimental effects of extreme scarcity.

In order to clearly indicate a situation of economic crisis, the word "expensive" was preferred.

The sources also implicitly mentioned it as symptoms such as the decline in production, caused by situations such as wars, droughts, floods, locust invasions, and their consequences, such as famines, forced migration of populations and the high rate of mortality.

Economic stability was often signified by the ease and the prosperity, a fertile season followed by good agricultural production, lower prices, peace, and political stability.

Throughout the study of the terms “crisis” and “economic stability”, we can conclude that the projection of economic terminology in the first place on historical texts and jurisprudence is possible and this will allow us to carry out an exhaustive research in this field.
