Income-tax ki Shar'i Haithiyat (Legal Position of Income Tax)

Argues that it is not lawful to levy another tax on Muslims other than zakäh and 'ushr. However, zakäh and 'ushr can be spent on all activities of the government since the head of fî sabîl Allah can be re-interpreted to include expenditure on all these activities. For scholars and general readers. Based on primary sources. Documented.
