Abstract: (2437 Views) |
A desirable pattern is expected to simplify complex phenomena on a small scale. From the perspective of the Holy Quran, a desirable pattern of distributing income and wealth should enjoy the following systematic set of principles and infrastructures: the true ownership of the Almighty God over the universe, the succession of man [on the earth] and that man is a trustee of his wealth only. This pattern defines spirituality, justice and growth as its main objectives to be met. The strategies this pattern follows are that one should look at his/her work as a worshipping act, avoid accumulating wealth and extravagant spending. And finally, this pattern espouses structures and institutions such as family, government and the general Muslim population. This pattern being based on a logical structure, on [universally recognized] principles and within the framework of Quranic laws and ethics, draws a comprehensive map from Quran to rightly distribute the income and wealth through various channels in society. The present article, following the method of deducting a theory, is to draw a pattern that shows way of earning primary, secondary income and then shows its right ways of distribution. |
