Abstract

This paper explores the interplay between
theology and economic justice, examining how religious
teachings across major world faiths contribute to
civilizational values of equity, fairness, and social
responsibility. By focusing on Islamic, Christian, and Judaic
economic ethics, the study assesses their influence on policies
concerning wealth distribution, poverty alleviation, labor
rights, and ethical markets. The research further investigates
how these theological frameworks have historically shaped
civilizations and influenced global norms on social justice.
Employing a multidisciplinary approach, the article argues
that economic justice, rooted in divine moral mandates, serves
as a pillar for sustainable and inclusive development.
