Abstract : Despite all the western plans to put the Islamic heritage out of sight, history still informs us from time to time of some of its scientific resources which no one came to think about. Among these resources, is the book "Al-Mirsad fi-Masa'il al-Iqtisad" (The Monitor of Economic Matters) by Sheikh Abdelkader Al-Medjaoui and Professor Omar Brihmat, published in 1322AH (1904AD) and disappeared –for unknown reasons- since that time. Thus, it is one of the books of Islamic economic heritage which remain unknown to the researchers in Islamic economics generally and history of Islamic economic thought especially, who think that the first contemporary writings in this field appeared in the early thirties or forties of the twentieth century AD. From the methodological perspective, four aspects can be distinguished in the book: 1. The Sources and the Objectives 2. The Mathematics needed in dealing with financial and economic affaires 3. The Concepts that highlight the general features of economic phenomena and their inter-relationships such as the concept of Demand and Supply 4. The Economic Methods based on the prophetic tradition which states: "You know better about your worldly matters" during the incident of "the fertilization of palms", which confirms, from economics policy, the need to appoint or consult the specialists each in his field who know about their field more that others. Among the scientific recommendations in the book that concern us today we find the following: 1. The combination of following the natural causes of earning and putting one's trust in Allah 2. The basis of satisfying the human needs is man himself 3. The Urge for invention and innovation 4. The Role of confidence in economic reform 5. The role of security in economic reform
