Abstract

The United Nations Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development provides a blueprint for peace and prosperity for the people and planet through 17 goals. The fundamentals of the teachings of Islam lay down guiding principles for human beings on matters concerning the welfare of all living beings along with respecting the ecology. The teachings of Islam through Qur’an and Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) provide mechanisms for an ethical and just society, the very objectives the SDGs aim to achieve. In this paper, we attempt to understand how the teachings of Islam concerning the creation and distribution of wealth can be the foundations for a mechanism for ethical wealth to attain the SDGs and a sustainable future for the people and planet.
