Another successful organization has been Musiad (Independent Businessmen’s Association) founded on May 5, 1990 in Istanbul. The members of this association as the representatives of an economic/business life depends on (Islamic) ethics and their main characteristics are to defend a non-interest economic values in Turkey. Although especially in last ten years a decreasing is seen in studies and translations on the theory of Islamic economics, but if we look at the studies of last thirty years totally, valuable efforts are noticeable. “Economic Philosophy of Ghazali” was published in 1984 (and in 2002) in Istanbul that it was Sabri Orman’s doctorate dissertation. Sabri Orman also translated Abdu al-Aziz’s Duri’s ‘Muqaddema fi al-Tarikh al-Iqtisad al-Arabi’ into Turkish in 1991 and he wrote an article “Sources of the Hıstory of Islamic Economic Thought” in Istac Journal of Malaysia and collected some articles in a Turkish book: “Iqtisad, Tarih, Toplum” (Economics, History and Society), in 2001. Study of Ibrahim Erol Kozak on opinions of Ibn Khaldun on economics (a study of 350 pp.) was published in 1984 (and in 1999). Ensar (Ansar) Foundation organized conferences on Islamic economics in 1984-85 and the texts of these conferences were published. Umar Chapra’s books were translated into Turkish in 1977, 1987 and last 2002 (A Strategy for Development with Justice and Stability.) Books and booklets of The Islamic Foundation of Leicester were translated also into Turkish from 1983. Cengiz Kallek is also a prolific author: “Market and State in the Period of the Prophet (Muhammad)” (in Turkish) in 1992; “The History of Islamic Economics Thought” in 2004; “Kharaj”, “Maks”, “Thoughts of Mawardi’s on Economics” as detailed entries in the Diyanet Islam Ansiklopedisi produced by Kallek.
