Contribution of mathematical models to Islamic economic theory: a survey

Abstract: Purpose -The purpose of the study is to explore contributions made in Islamic economics methodology, particularly in the use of mathematical models used to build Islamic economic theories.Design/methodology/approach -The methodology adopted is a survey by means of literature review.Findings -Overuse of mathematical models in economics has it apparent weakness in simplifying complex realities and use of impracticable assumptions. But, that notwithstanding, they have a role to play in the development of Islamic … Show more

“…Most of the development in the application demonstrates that the traditional model is implemented on assets subject to Shariah principles. Studies on model development in Islamic investments have also been carried out by Hassan, Aliyu, Saiti, &Halim (2020) andAbdullahi (2018). This current study provides related works on developing models for asset valuation or portfolio construction with Shariah principles.…”

“…Therefore, apart from the beneficial usage of mathematical model, the current working researches shouldn't just purely adopt or a mere infusing the Islamic values into the mainstream's model. What really matter for adopting mathematical models into the Islamic economics is that, it shouldn't cause obstacles in achieving the aim of Islamic economics, which is Falah (Abdullahi, 2018).…”

“…As has been shown previously, several Islamic banking scheme practices are found in countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Pakistan, and some GCC countries. An example is a research conducted by Abdullahi (2018), Kiaee et al (2013), andWahid (1985).…”

“…Islamic economics itself has a history of skepticism towards use of mathematics in theory building. The over mathematization of conventional economics has sent a warning signal to Islamic economists making them cautious in adopting mathematics in Islamic economics (Abdullahi, 2018). But, despite that word of caution, quantitative techniques of mathematics have important role to play in the theory and practice of Islamic economics.…”

“…Today, economic researchers and practitioners are leaning towards empirical works rather than building hypothetical theories. This can be seen from the number of empirical works published by conventional economic journals (Abdullahi, 2018).…”
