Abstract

The understanding and implementation of the doctrine contained in the Qur'an has been conducted by Prophet Muhammad Saw as a direct recipient of God via Angel Gabriel a.s. The explanation can be, sometimes, in the form of speech, action, and recognition which later called sunnah. Not so with the quality of the Sunnah, it has to be tested in term of text, content and context, as well as its narrators (isnad). If the text, content and context are in relevant with the basic values of the Qur’an then the Sunnah can be jutified (Ṣaḥīḥ). Someone who has a creative spirit and has been able to build new innovation out of the ordinary people in general is anEntrepreneur. Entrepreneurship in Islam has been derived from the Qur’an, chapter al-‘Alaq: 1-5 and the Sunnah wich encourage Muslim to have the tree principles, namely the principle of divinity, social, and human dignity. These tree principles encourage Muslim to have an excellent sevice and friendly environment as exemplified by exemplified by Prophet Muhammad saw.
