Abstract :The views of Said Nursi concerning the issue of economic activity that are found mostly in The Nineteenth Flash (also known as "The Treatise On Economy”) have again been brought to light by placing them within the broader context of the 5000 page treatise of the Risale-i Nur. His explanations in the "Treatise of Frugality” have been analyzed with respect to various parts of the Risale-i Nur as a whole and through doing this, new issues and matters have been uncovered. Some of his economic explanations are considerably different from that of modern capitalist economics.
Keywords : Said Nursi, frugality
