| Summary: | ENTREPRENEURSHIP is about
taking the opportunity to use
available resources creatively
to influence the market. It can
be seen as the ability to create
and establish from nothing to something,
such as the creation of new enterprises or
organisations.
Entrepreneurial activity has become
one of the tools for individuals who want
to create and maintain a sustainable way of
life as it not only supports the well-being of
individual entrepreneurs but also contributes
to the overall well-being of society by
generating more job opportunities, driving
economic growth and addressing social
challenges.
As such, entrepreneurship provides the
opportunity for people, especially asnaf, to
liberate themselves from poverty and take
steps towards economic stability and growth.
‘Asnaf’ refers to a group of people worthy of
receiving zakat (an annual alms tax or poor
rate that each Muslim is expected to pay as a
religious duty). This includes the needy, the
poor, zakat collectors, the muallaf (converts),
the slaves to whom freedom is promised, the
debtors, the distant travellers, and those who
fight in the name of Allah. |
