Application of Islamic Business Ethics by Muslim Traders in Klambir Lima Kebun Village, Hamparan Perak District, Deli Serdang Regency

Abstract

Maintaining productivity in order to achieve great profits, must not harm other parties. While still acknowledging the central role from an economic point of view in business, it is also necessary to pay attention to another point of view that should not be ignored, namely the moral point of view. The research method is qualitative and exploratory on Muslim traders in Klambir Lima Kebun Village, Hamparan Perak District, Deli Serdang Regency. The type of data used to compile this paper comes from data obtained through observations and interviews with various relevant traders. Furthermore, the data is presented in descriptive form. There are many cases that occur, because of this obsession with the pursuit of big profits, there is a lot of fraud in doing business. Not everything that can be done in economic activities to pursue goals (making profits) is okay. We must respect the interests and rights of others, and vice versa, so that we are not harmed. This means that respecting the interests and rights of others must also be done for the sake of the business itself. So that in every activity there are always ethical obstacles to our behavior, including economic behavior. So, a good business is not only a profitable business. A good business is also a morally good business.
