and Sunnah of the Prophet PBUH as the guiding principles and values for Muslims to create a kind of
industrialization that shall bring about not only economic prosperity and sustainable development to the nation,
but also one that is in harmony with the environment. The main objectives of this research are to investigate
Quranic point of view about the industrialization and relate it to both Western and Islamic perspectives. Its main
emphasis is to identify the driving philosophy behind the process of industrialization implemented in Malaysia
with the universal values and teachings of Islam. This research is conducted through primarily of historical
approach and relies on library research in order to achieve its objectives. A textual and critical analysis of
Quranic verses will be utilized to demonstrate the application of Quran pertaining industrialization. Apart from
that, this study will attempt to present the concept of industrialization from the Quranic point of view with
special reference to selected Quranic verses. The ideas presented could be further developed and appreciated
by the society in promoting sustainability environment in this industrialization era |
