İngilizce (OpenAlex)

In this study, Homo Islamicus (Islamic individual) and the economic behavior tendency of the Islamic individual were analyzed. In this context, participants were asked 22 survey questions originally prepared as a result of the literature review. The results were analyzed using the Python program. According to the results obtained, it was observed that more than half of the society did not lead a lifestyle according to Islamic traditions. Sensitivity to the distinction between halal and haram has come to the fore. The issue with the least sensitivity was being a patient person. At the same time, it was observed that the Islamic individual took care of those in need economically and avoided consuming haram products by succumbing to its wishes and desires. However, it was observed that they had a low sensitivity when choosing the interest-free capital system. Likewise, there was a low social attitude towards donating.
