All praises are for Allah who blessed the Muslims by revealing the Holy Quran and himself took the responsibility of its safety through safe-guarding the Sunnah and the sayings of the Holly Prophet (peace be upon him). The Holy Quran and the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) can be separated from each other. These are the two streams emerging from source, according to the saying of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him), “I am leaving two things among you, if you strictly follow them, you will never be distracted. These are the book of God and the Sunnah of his Prophet (peace be upon him)”. Along with being the fundamental source of the Hadith, the ‘Sahihain’ are regarded as the “Ash-ul-kutab”. In ‘sahihain’ the Al-Hadith encompasses all the spheres of life including sociology, politics, affairs of daily life and morality. On the other side, there is an extensive description of the principles of economics. The Holy Quran has regarded wealth and earnings as the foundation of the survival of human life. In the present age, it is the need to run the four elements of economics that are earning of wealth, distribution of wealth, exchange of wealth, and division of wealth for highlighting the Islamic economy. Unless society is not established on solid economic grounds, prosperity and affluence cannot be the fate of an individual. Keeping in vein and a survey of principles of economics in Sahihain will be presented."
