| Summary: | This paper reviews the life and contributions of the late scholar Khurshid Ahmad, particularly his service for the cause of Islam and Islamic paradigm of life. He was not only a prominent Pakistani figure and global thought leader, but also a staunch ambassador of Islamic thought, Pakistan and the Muslim Ummah, earning him widespread respect, even from across ideological and political divides. His writings and initiatives, which explain the distinction between Islamic economics, socialism, and capitalism, helped shape modern Islamic economic theory. The article is composed of two parts: the first part explores his diverse contributions; the second part looks at his life trajectory. |
