Abstract: This research discusses the thoughts on Islamic economic growth and conventional economics according to the figures, namely Ab Ysuf. Ab Ubaid. AlGhazAli. Ibn Khaldn. As-Syatibi. Monzer Khaf. Adam Smith. David Ricardo. Keynes. Alfred Marshall, and W. Rostow from a historical approach where his thoughts on the discourse of economic growth are quite a lot of references by researchers and academics of the world. The research method used in this article uses a literature review of the figure's work because what is discussed is a comparison of thoughts that have contributed to science through his works that have been used as references by subsequent generations. Based on the results and discussion of the thoughts of Islamic economic growth and conventional economics, it can be concluded that, in general, economists state that economic growth aims to achieve human prosperity by meeting the satisfaction needs of consuming goods and services. Meanwhile, according to Islamic figures, economic growth must refer to the basic principles of Sharia to achieve prosperity in the world and the hereafter . l-falA. This study also discusses the concept of factors that affect economic growth. Keywords: thought, growth, economy. Islam, conventional. Introduction Economic growth is part of the critical issues of the main discussion in macroeconomics, which consists of economic growth problems, economic activity instability, unemployment, inflation, and balance of trade and payments. 1 In addition, economic growth is defined 1 Sadono Sukirno.

Islamic economics offers a model of significant economic growth prospects and macroeconomic stability that is durable and resistant to 3 Government report 1st quarter economic growth in 2023 percent (YoY). 4 It should be noted that the data shows that the contribution of Islamic business activities to national GDP in December 2023 was 46. This reality breaks the view that the Islamic economy does not contribute to the national economy. Therefore, it becomes imperative to practice the development of the Islamic economic system in the Indonesian context, considering that Muslims are the majority in Indonesia. The Prophet Muhammad had already implemented sharia-based economic and trade practices even beyond that. He instilled Sharia as an ethic of trade and economics in ancient Arab society. In that era's economic and trade practices. Persian and Roman currencies were widely recognized and became effective means of exchange. barter was also known. Islamic economic thought developed and was practiced in three-quarters of the world approximately 250 years before Scholastic thought emerged with the influence of Ancient Greece. Before the scholastics. Islamic thinkers had created their own opinions on matters such as fiscal policy, monetary policy, monetary institutions, lending and borrowing instruments, prices and pricing policies, markets and market regulation, exchange, interest, government budgets, taxes to encourage or discourage wealth accumulation, state treasuries, open budgets, and methods of balancing state budgets, supply and demand. The development of Islamic economic growth thinking, such as Ab Ysuf. Ab Ubaid, al-GhazAli. Ibn Khaldn. Ash-Syatibi, and Monzer Khaf, is based on the principles of faith. Sharia, and moral values, to 2 Emil Dauncey. Vandana Desai, and Robert B Potter. The Companion to Development Studies. Fourth edition (London New York: Routledge.

At the same time, western economists such as Adam Smith. David Ricardo. Keynes. Alfred Marshall. Rostow, and Harrod-Domar are based on the principles of capitalism and liberalism that emphasize individual freedom in business and transactions to achieve prosperity in the fulfillment of human needs satisfaction. Therefore, this study finds out the thoughts on the economic growth of the figures and their Based on the explanation mentioned above, we formulated the following problems: . ) What is the thought of economic growth according to Islam: Ab Ysuf. Ab Ubaid. Al-GhazAli. Ibn Khaldn. Monzer Khaf?, . ) What is conventional economic growth thinking: Adam Smith. David Ricardo. Keynes. Alfred Marshall. Rostow?, and . ) How is the comparative relevance of Islamic economic growth thinking and conventional economic growth? Literature Review Changes in a nation's output over time are called economic Typically, changes in the gross domestic product (GDP) expressed as a percentage are used to measure it. 7 The concepts of economic growth put forward by the Historical. Keynesian, and Classic/Neoclassic Schools diverge from the idea of natural economic Furthermore, the relationship between religion and economic growth cannot be reconciled with natural economic growth. Islamic economic growth is modeled after the idea of natural economic growth. The Islamic economic growth rate is the natural economic growth rate that contains social surplus. Islamic doctrine establishes economic growth as an implicit issue while making economic rights explicit. The rate exceeds the pace of population growth. Other outcomes are typical of the industry, and the Bayt al-mal is not used as a monetary and fiscal policy tool. The idea is comparable to Keynesian. Classical. Neoclassical, and Historical ideas. 8 Shatz-Miller's that nothing intrinsic to Islamic institutions impaired economic growth. 7 Dauncey. Desai, and Potter. The Companion to Development Studies.

Ab Ubaid. Al-GhazAli. Ibn Khaldn, and Monzer Khaf, have significantly influenced the development of Islamic economic thought. Each of these scholars contributed uniquely to the field, shaping the principles and practices of Islamic economics. Taxation and Public Expenditure: Ab Ysuf made significant contributions to the field of taxation and public expenditure. His work emphasized the importance of fair taxation and efficient public spending to ensure economic stability and growth. 10 b. Economic Justice and Welfare: Ab Ubaid's contributions are not explicitly detailed in the provided abstracts. However, his work generally focused on economic justice and the community's welfare, aligning with the broader objectives of Islamic economic principles. 11 c. Welfare Function and Market Development: Al-GhazAli's economic thought covered various aspects, including the welfare function, market development, production activities, the role of money, and public finance. He emphasized the importance of ethical behavior in economic activities and the state's role in ensuring justice and welfare. 10 d. Sustainable Development: AlGhazAli's principles align with modern concepts of sustainable development, integrating social, economic, and environmental aspects to ensure holistic growth. 11 e. Dynamic Economic Model: Ibn Khaldn is renowned for his dynamic economic growth model, which includes wealth, government, human resources. Sharia, growth, and justice. His model suggests that a combination of these factors influences economic development, and he emphasizes the importance of justice and equitable distribution of resources. 12 f. Maqasid al-Shariah's tenets, which center on the goals of Islamic law to guarantee human happiness, are strongly compatible with Asy-Syatibi's writings. His contributions strongly emphasize integrating social and economic growth to ensure economic activity aligns with Sharia's larger objectives. 13 g. Modern Islamic 10 auro BeniN.

His work aims to address current economic challenges through the lens of Islamic teachings, promoting sustainable and ethical economic development. Several key economists have significantly influenced Conventional economic growth thinking, including Adam Smith. David Ricardo. Keynes. Alfred Marshall, and W. Rostow. These thinkers contributed unique perspectives and theories that have shaped modern economic thought. Adam Smith is often regarded as the father of modern His seminal work, "The Wealth of Nations," emphasized the importance of saving and investment out of the net income of society as the driving force of economic growth. Smith highlighted the role of the division of labor in increasing productivity and technical progress, which he believed was limited by the extent of the market. 15 His ideas laid the foundation for classical economic theory and free markets with minimal government intervention. 16 b. David Ricardo built upon Smith's ideas and introduced the theory of comparative advantage, which explains how countries benefit from specializing in producing goods for which they have relative efficiency and trading them with others. This theory has been fundamental in understanding international trade and its impact on economic growth. 17 c. John Maynard Keynes revolutionized economic thought with his work during the Great Depression. Keynes argued that aggregate demand, rather than supply, is the primary driver of economic growth and employment. He advocated for active government intervention to manage economic cycles, suggesting that public spending could stimulate demand during periods of economic 18 This Keynesian approach contrasted sharply with classical 14 Mahmoud Ali Aleraig and Mehmet Asutay.

Alfred Marshall contributed to developing microeconomic theory and the concept of supply and demand. He introduced the idea of price elasticity and the marginal utility theory, which helped explain consumer behavior and market dynamics. Marshall's work provided a more detailed understanding of how individual markets operate and interact, influencing micro and macroeconomic theories. 19 f. Rostow is known for his "Stages of Economic Growth" model, which outlines a linear progression of economic development through five stages: traditional society, preconditions for takeoff, takeoff, drive to maturity, and age of high mass consumption. Rostow's model emphasized the importance of investment in modern technology and infrastructure for sustained economic growth. His work has influenced development economics, particularly in understanding the processes and policies needed for economic modernization.

His contribution to economics is summarized in his work as "KitAb AmwAl.

In his view, justice is equality between individual, public, and state rights. On the governance of the state, he emphasized giving full authority to the khAlifah to decide on various policies, as long as the policy does not contradict the Sharia and, of course always oriented to the benefit of the peopleAifurthermore, the government's authority in implementing a general policy related to the distribution of conquered The concept of land ownership means that the land has been arid and unmanaged for three years and can be handed over to the state to be used for the public good. The public good in question is other owners who can manage the land. In addition. Ab Ubaid also emphasized the importance of the government's role in regulating matters of national defense and foreign trade. Furthermore, he explained the function of money: as a standard of value and a medium of exchange. Therefore, he supports the economic theory of how coins function-a theory that refers to the standard value of gold and silver compared to other commodities.

In al-AmwAl, he focused on public finance. however, most of its material deals with government KitAb al- AmwAl also emphasizes some issues regarding taxation, administrative law, and international law. As such, the book was crucial to economic thought for centuries afterward. Al-GhazAli Abu Hamid Muhammad, known as Al-GhazAli, was born in .

He was the son of Muhammad ibn Muhammad, who died . 6 AD), where he lived until he died in . 1 AD. ) Al-GhazAli lived during the reign of the Great Seljuk Dynasty . 5 AD - 1157 AD). Although he was very familiar with the administration of most of the Seljuk sultans . and even had occasional access to the sultan's court, he avoided practical politics. The conceptual framework of economics follows the thought of Imam al-Ghazali, including the unity between science, tawhid. Sharia, and Sufism. Making tawhid as inspiration. Sharia as an instrument and tasawwuf as an economic spirit. Any study, including economics, will eventually discover how great the greatness of Allah regulates a perfect life for humans. 25 It can be interpreted tawhid as the basic inspiration of the economy tawhid means one, namely the nature and substance of oneness that is only owned by Allah. Meanwhile. Sharia is interpreted as the laws of Allah's provisions to His servants and delivered through His Messenger Muhammad SAW. Furthermore. Sufism is construed as the practice of good deeds as the implementation of faith and Sharia without any hope except ride Allah. In addition, the concept of maslahah, according to Al-GhazAli, is interpreted as improving the welfare of all human beings, which is summarized in the following. The five objectives of Sharia . aqAshid syarah al-kham. are to protect religion . l- d. , soul . l-naf. , offspring . l-nas. , property . and intellect . l-'aq. 26 The economic topics discussed by AlMif Rohim Noyo Sarkun and Surtahman Kastin Hasan Al-Kindely.

Ibn Khaldn Abdul al-Rahman Ibn Khaldn born and died .

KitAb al-'Ibar, is of unparalleled value as a reference source of Arab and non-Arab history up to his time. His brilliant work "Muqaddimah"27 (Introduction to Histor. , considered the most sublime intellectual achievement of the Middle Ages, is a treasury of various sciences such as history, psychology, sociology, geography, economics, political science, and others. Franz Rosenthal translated it into English in three volumes, first published in 1958 and an enhanced edition in 1967. In the book, muqaddimah's economic growth is influenced not only by economic factors alone but also by social, political, and cultural Ibn Khaldn understood that economic growth cannot be separated from the social dynamics of society that produce wealth. argued that economic growth occurs when people can work together and support each other in creating wealth. In addition, he also emphasized the importance of institutional factors in influencing economic growth. According to him, strong and stable institutions will encourage sustainable economic growth. Conversely, weak and corrupt institutions will hinder economic growth. Furthermore, economic growth is also influenced by repeated historical cycles. 27 Ibn Khaldun.

Ibn Khaldn emphasized the importance of understanding history and learning from past experiences in planning future economic growth. Analyzes the closely interrelated role of moral, political, economic, social, and demographic factors in the well-being or misery of a society, ultimately leading to the rise and fall of governments and The analysis is not static and is not based solely on economic variables. It is more about socio-economic dynamics. Muqaddimah contains a fairly extensive discussion of financial principles, most of which are Ibn Khaldn's original contributions to economic thought. 28 In addition. Ibn Khaldn stated that the money supply cannot measure a prosperous country but can be determined based on the production level and a positive balance of payments. Meanwhile, what supports the development of a country is the production sector because the production sector will absorb labor, increase employment income, and create demand . for other Imam Ash-Syatibi As-Syatibi's full name is Abu Ishaq bin Musa bin Muhammad ALLakhmi AL-Ghanati. As-Syatibi is one of the Muslim scholars whose background is not widely known. What is clear is that he comes from the Arab Lakhmi tribe. Al-syatibi's name is attributed to his family's home region, syatibah, which is located in eastern Spain. Until now the date of Asy-Syatibi's birth is also uncertain. Because, in general people only mention when he died in . /1388 AD. ) However, it can be assumed that Asy-Syatibi was born and lived in Granada during the reign of Ysuf Abu Al-hajjaj . 3 AD-1354 AD) and Sultan Muhammad V . 4 AD1391 AD). According to Ash-Syatibi, human benefits can be realized if the five basic elements of human life are learned and maintained: religion, soul, mind, offspring, and property. In this framework, he divides MaqAshid into three levels, namely dharuriyat . , hajiyat . , and tahsiniat . 29 It can be understood that his study is more correlated between dharuriyat, hajiyat and tahsiniyat Umer Chapra.

Monzer Khaf is an economist who combines "Islamic Social Finance" such as zakat and alms with economic activity, income, consumption, saving, and He is also an economist, counselor, and lecturer. 30 He is respected as a contemporary Islamic thinker who thinks much about economics based on Islamic principles. Khaf's thinking on the term "Islamic Man" in economic activity, especially when buying goods, one must consider whether the goods are halal or haram, whether they are wasteful, and so on. The state is responsible for planning and supervising economic activities. These activities must follow the rules of the Islamic economic game, which consist of various binding social, political, religious, moral, and legal 32 In addition. Monzer Kahf seeks to change people's belief that economics is an essential part of religion that cannot be avoided. believes that the Islamic economic system is a blessing for everyone, not just for Muslims, in the behavior of structured consumption patterns defined as consumption patterns that include consumers, the level of wealth, success, and the time scale of behavior. Khaf developed his thoughts on consumption by introducing Final Spending (FS) as a standard variable in measuring the maximum level of satisfaction obtained by Muslim consumers. One of them begins by looking at the assumption that specifically for the institution of zakat, it is considered a part of the socio-economic structure, assuming that zakat is necessary for muzakki. Therefore, although zakat is a spending that provides benefits, it is considered outside the final expenditures because of its fixed nature. The final spending for an individual can be formulated as follows: 30 Harvis Aravik. Sejarah Pemikiran Ekonomi Islam (Depok: Kencana, 2. 31 Netta Agusti.

David Ricardo. Keynes. Alfred Marshall. Rosto. Conventional economic growth theories are classified into several economic growth theories, namely classical theory, neo-classical theory, modern theory, and the following influential economic figures in the Adam Smith Full name Adam Smith, born and died . 3 AD -1790 AD), is the most senior figure of the classical school and lecturer at the University of Glasgow. He is best known for his outstanding work and has made a new chapter in economic thought through the book "An Inquiry Into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nation," popularized with the abbreviation "The Wealth Nation. "34 He mentioned several components that affect economic growth, including capital stock, population, land area, natural resources, and the level of technology used. The division of labor is the beginning of the idea of economic This division of labor will determine how factors of production can be used and how much output they produce. The theory of the value of labor is known as the use of factors of production. In this situation, a person will receive incentives following his interests . and fulfilling his life needs . tility/fulfillmen. This "adequate" incentive can increase labor productivity, which in turn can result in increased output. Higher output will encourage producers to pay higher wages to their For employees, this increase in wages will increase their per Euis Amalia.

This increase in wealth will also increase capital accumulation, which will change the division of labor. Furthermore. Smith emphasized the importance of competition and innovation in promoting economic growth. According to Smith, a free market will result in high efficiency and productivity, thus promoting overall economic growth. David Ricardo Full name David Ricardo . 2 AD. -1823 AD. ) He was an English economist and politician. his work on economics is summarized in "The Principle of Political Economy and Taxation According to David Ricardo. "37 Population growth of a country's population affects its economic growth, as an increase in population results in an increase in labor and the demand for land and nature. In an open economy. Ricardo's theory states that a social security program or a small state budget deficit will have little impact on the real interest rate in international capital markets. He believes that a close family relationship exists between The budget deficit is just a transfer of tax burden from the present to the future. For this extended family, the budget deficit will not affect the economy. This is because the extended family has to bear the tax burden now and later. One of the most famous theories is the "Ricardian Equivalence" (RE) theory, which argues that there is a strong connection between generations. The budget problem will still be solved. The extended family will still incur tax costs now and then. The neo-classical group argues that in the long run, consumption will increase due to the budget deficit. Ricardo's famous theory is about the theory of comparative advantage when there is no employment opportunity at all. Comparative advantage, or relative efficiency, not absolute advantage, is the basis of trade. Countries will tend to sell their goods produced with a higher efficiency 35 Robert B Ekelund and Robert F Hebert. A History of Economic Theory and Method.

Keynes emphasized the importance of government intervention in overcoming recessions and controlling inflation. He said the government can use fiscal and monetary policies to stimulate economic growth and create The principle underlying the Keynesian theory of national income and employment is the principle of effective demand, which is interpreted in an expenditure-income scheme where the equality of aggregate demand and aggregate supply of goods is defined in terms of the equality of aggregate expenditure and national income, both in real The distinction between the autonomous component and the income-dependent component makes it possible to understand situations where effective demand is insufficient, and as a result, an unemployment equilibrium occurs. Aggregate demand is the sum of consumption and investment, and consumption demand is assumed to depend on real income. Investment depends on variables other than real income . , interest rat. 40 This school is also called neo-classical because of the ideas inspired by the classical school of thought. The results of their thinking are in the form of criticism of classical theory, and some are a synthesis. This noe-classical school is often interpreted as a marginal revolution because the neo-classical school emphasizes a shift from the concerns of the classical school.

"41 He stated that demand and supply forces determine the value of a good. Furthermore, he also revealed the structure of market behavior and the law of diminishing returns. Marshall also emphasized the importance of factors of production, such as capital, labor, and technology, in influencing economic growth. He also stresses the importance of efficient resource allocation in achieving sustainable economic growth. According to him, the government should actively regulate the market and allocate resources efficiently to promote stable and sustainable economic growth. Harrod-Domar The full name of Sir Roy Harrod . 0 AD -1978 AD) and Evsey Domar . 4 AD -1967 AD), an American economist, is a complement to Keynes' theory, where Keynes saw it in the short term, while HarrodDomar saw it in the long term. Then the assumptions are: The economy is closed, the desire to save is constant, and the production process has a fixed efficiency. 42 The growth rate of the labor force is constant and equal to the population growth rate. It can be concluded that the assumptions used by Harrod-Domar in long-term economic growth fulfill the balance below: g=k=n Where g is the growth rate, k is the capital growth rate, and n is the labor growth rate. Then, the Harrod-Domar theory states that capital goods are used as much as possible, and aggregate demand should increase as much as the capacity of capital goods realized as a result of past investment. Thus, the ever-increasing value of investment will ensure economic growth. The Harrod-Domar growth model can be written as Savings (S) is a proportion . of total output (Y), with the following equation: Ss = Y 41 A Marshall. Principles of Economics.

Johnson He supported the United States military intervention in the Vietnam War. In his book entitled "The Stages of Economic Growth: A Non-Communist Manifesto, " Rostow describes 5 . stages of development that a country must go through to achieve sustainable economic growth. The first stage is the traditional company. According to him, traditional society is a society whose production roles are incomplete, the production process is not perfect, and irrational values influence the process of life passed down from generation to generation. The second stage, pre-takeoff, is a prerequisite for takeoff, interpreted as a transitional period or preparation to achieve development by using the strengths possessed. The third stage is takeoff. At this stage, there are three characteristics of countries that can enter the takeoff stage. First, manufacturing funding increases from 5% or decreases to 10% of gross national product. Second, a leading industrial sector has a very high growth rate. Third, a social, political, and institutional framework can develop modern industries and external economic factors capable of generating economic growth. The fourth stage is the stage of progress towards maturity . he drive towards maturit. Rostow describes the stage towards maturity as where modern technology can be used effectively in most manufacturing activities. Comparison of Islamic Economic Growth and Conventional 70 | AJIS : Academic Journal of Islamic Studies, vol. 10, no. 1, 2025 Economics According to the Thoughts of the Figures Classical Islamic economists do not explicitly mention the theory of economic growth, but their thoughts on economics are substantively related directly or indirectly to economic growth, while economic figures in the 18th century have just emerged their thoughts on economics through the works of classical economists such as Adam Smith43, mentioning the essential concepts of division of labor and specialization as factors that can increase productivity and economic growth. Smith also highlighted the importance of free markets and competition as drivers of economic growth. David Ricardo44 developed the labor theory of value and the theory of international trade that affect a country's economic growth. Ricardo also highlighted the importance of investment in capital development as a key factor in increasing long-term economic growth, and Thomas Malthus45 said that population growth tends to outpace the growth of food production, which can lead to poverty and Malthus emphasized the importance of population control to balance population growth and economic growth. Islamic figures have contributed thoughts on economics. example, in the 11th century. Al-GhazAli46provided relevant thoughts in the context of economic growth. According to him, good economic growth can only be achieved if people have high morality and implement the principles of justice in all aspects of life, including in the economic Al-GhazAli also emphasized the importance of avoiding greed and ensuring that wealth is distributed fairly among all members of society. In the 14th century. Ibn Khaldn47 had a unique view of economic According to him, economic growth occurs when people have a high spirit of work and cooperate to build a commonwealth. Ibn Khaldn also emphasized the importance of justice in the distribution of wealth so that economic growth can be sustainable.
