ANALSISIS KONSEP AL- UJRAH ( UPAH ) DALAM EKONOMI ISLAM : PENDEKATAN TAFSIR TEMATIK

Abstract

Humans as social beings in essence need someone's help in working for their own interests. As a reward for someone's work, workers are given wages (ujrah) . The moral concept in determining worldly wages will result in the achievement of uhkrawih wages . However, currently the capitalist wage system is often applied in economic life rather than the Islamic economic system, so that the meaning of wages and the mechanics of wages and matters related to wages in Islamic economics are important to understand in depth. The research method used is literature. The results of the study through the thematic interpretation approach state that the word " ajru" can mean reward, " ajru" can mean reward and also “ ajru†can mean dowry (dowry). Giving Ujrah (wages) is not only meant between workers and employers who have a contract, but wages are also given by a husband to a wife who has been divorced if the wife is breastfeeding. In this case the position of the husband as the owner of capital ( musta'jir ), and the wife as a worker ( ajir ). Islam asks employers to pay workers a fair wage and provide workers with facilities.
