| Summary: | This paper basically aims to explore and introduce the opportunities of using Islamic business ethics and regulations as a mechanism for resolving ethical quandaries in the contemporary business world. The paper firstly introduces a practical approach for Islamic business ethics that is identified by reviewing The Holy Qur’ān, Hadith. Interviews are conducted with Islamic scholars to reason its applicability in the field of supply chain and a comparative analysis is done through literature review of supply chain ethics to demonstrate how Islamic business ethics could be implemented in order to arrive at a moral judgment. The study is qualitative and conceptual in nature. The findings of the study disclose that the similarities between Islamic and supply chain
ethics are tremendous. The findings of the study reveal the confirmatory pieces of evidence to validate the roots of supply chain ethics in Islamic business ethics. This paper provides systematic insights and a practical approach to the compatibility and applicability of Islamic business ethics into supply chain ethics in order to improve the overall performance of the supply chain. The similarities are being disclosed with a view to incorporate them into supply chain ethics for effective supply chain management to govern ethical decisions. The proposed structure and developments can help to resolve ethical issues to enhance the supply chain performance by incorporating Islamic business ethics into supply chain ethics. Its limitations are that some constructs from Islamic and supply chain ethics may still have not been compared and can be researched in future.
