The Book of Earning a Livelihood (Kitab al-Kasb) is a seminal work in the history of Islamic Economics. Written in the 8th century, it serves as a theological and practical defense of economic productivity against the extreme asceticism of the time. Shaybani argues that seeking a lawful income is a religious obligation, equating the importance of work to that of prayer.
