摘要：Focusing on the building of entrepreneurial spirit, this article emphasises the impor- tance of Islamic values as the basis to create an independent and competitive ummah (community of believers). It is widely convicted that our society prefer to be civil servants or employees to starting their own businesses. This and misperception of religious values and teachings are partly responsible for the slow development of the entrepreneurship culture. I argue that we need to revitalise Islamic values in order to build an entrepreneurial spirit that emphasises honesty and trustwor- thiness. Devotions should not be understood as norrowly as they have often been, and must become a main motivation when one starts or runs a business. It is also crucial to teach that dishonesty and untrustworthiness will only produce short term profits with no long term bless- ings.
