We often consider industry merely as a business, a quest for excessive profits. Consequently, we regard industrialists as people who are greedy, who are interested only in an affluent lifestyle, and are thus linked to being irreligious. We also tend to think that any venture to accumulate wealth will involve cheating and other forms of abuses. Therefore, we regard all industries as un-Islamic or deviational and obstructive to the performance of our religious duties or ibadah in Islam. However, if we examine industry from the truly Islamic perspective, we will realise that industry is a service. While this service can bring evil if misapplied, it can also be beneficial and important to religion and our religious duties.
