Islamic Corporate Social Responsibility Hussein Elasrag

Islam provides a foundation and guidelines for living one's life. In this context, there is a very detailed concept of ethical and social behavior that allows us to deduce that the concept of social responsibility automatically plays a role in Islam. The concept of social responsibility and justice in Islam considering the holy Qur'an and Hadith suggests that there seems to be congruence between the ideals of social responsibility and justice and business transactions in Islam that has a resonance with prevailing notions of corporate social responsibility (CSR). The purpose of this book is to illustrate the concept of Islamic Social Responsibility (ICSR), the definition, structure and the Islamic principles of CSR with a specific reference to its values and objectives.
