Pemikiran Ekonomi Kontemporer Muhammad Baqir Al-Sadr

Abstract

Muhammad Baqir Al-Sadr is one of the most influential contemporary Islamic economic thinkers of the 20th century. Through his monumental work Iqtisaduna, Al-Sadr not only criticized the economic systems of capitalism and socialism, but also formulated a conceptual framework for Islamic economics that stands independently, systematically, and is based on the values ​​of revelation. This article aims to examine in depth the economic thought of Muhammad Baqir Al-Sadr by examining its philosophical foundations, basic principles of Islamic economics, criticism of the modern economic system, and its relevance in the contemporary economic context. This research uses a literature study method with a descriptive-analytical approach to Al-Sadr's main works and contemporary Islamic economic literature. The results of the study indicate that Al-Sadr's thought offers an alternative paradigm that emphasizes social justice, balance between the individual and society, and the integration of moral and spiritual values ​​in economic activities, which remains relevant to address the problems of inequality and the current global economic crisis.
