Abstract

Islamic faith and the ethical dimensions of the individual and the community have a significant role in guiding economic behavior by connecting the worldly life to the hereafter. In the Islamic economics paradigm, we exhibit the good (bad) attributes of ethical (unethical) behavior by relating ethics to the economic behavior of spending. In this paper, we contribute to developing a measure of the overspending and underspending that allows testing the presence of wastefulness and niggardliness. The article is published on https://pms.lifescienceglobal.com/index.php/jrge/article/view/4060
