College is not just about how much it costs, what you want to work after college, what degree you will get, or how the campus is, or even according to your interests, it's not just about it all. But the main thing is what to learn later?!
It takes courage to make college decisions, if the priority is what is studied later, dare to study Sharia economics is one of them.
Economics is one of the most important scientific fields, not that others are not important, but economics also determines the progress of a country and nation, the progress of a country one of them with its economic strength.
Like it or not, this is the fact, the economy is one of the goals of the state, namely advancing the general welfare.
But understanding the current economy, both micro economics and macroeconomics, will be a lot of questions, especially as a Muslim, whether the teachings of Islam have been implemented in economics?
This question must be answered by some Muslims, therefore taking Sharia economics courses is a challenge, because not only studying, but also having to practice and apply kaffah.
Some reasons why some Muslims should dare to study Sharia economics:
Institutionalized Conventional Economics Lessons
Imagine that what is learned before college is conventional economics, of course the result is conventional economic behavior.
Accustomed to usury, accustomed to making money at all costs, accustomed to spending money with pleasure, accustomed to bringing down others under the pretext of providing for the family.
"There will come a time, people will not care where their wealth comes from, whether from the lawful way or from the unclean way" (Narrated by Bukhari)
Its Economic and Financial Institutions Are Conventional
After conventional economics lessons have been considered reasonable, the institution will also be considered reasonable. There seems to be no other option to avoid conventional economic and financial institutions.
Whereas in its history, Muslims have had very fair institutions in dealing with human property, not just Muslims.
"Surely there will come to men a time (when) there will be none among them who will not eat usury. Whoever (tries) not to eat it, then he will still be exposed to the dust (usury)," (Narrated by Abu Daud)
Solution to Muamalah Maliyah
The most important thing then is how the Islamic solution can spread again, provide welfare fairly, become rahmatan lil alamin.
In the discussion of fiqh there is Muamalah Maliyah jurisprudence, a scientific field that should be owned by every Muslim, at least in the most basic discussion.
Atsar Caliph Umar bin Khattab Radhiyallahu'anhu :
"Do not sell in this market the traders who do not understand dien (muamalah)"
Dare to Study Sharia Economics
Who is challenged by the above conditions, then there is no need to hesitate to dare to study Sharia economics.
