  • Açıklama: Money income is the primary measure of distributional equity. In Islam, the concept of an income floor is quite basic though the concept of an income ceiling is not equally clear. All property is in the ownership of God. Man,is a trustee of this property. The resources of the earth are meant to provide for the needs of everyone. One is supposed to meet his legitimate requirements and leave therest for others. Self-interest is not the sole motivational force. For factor rewards, the basic principle is: ‘to each his due’. Their rewards have the least chance of being vitiated by exploitation. Pre-determined factor prices would be distasteful to Islam. Rent of land as a fixed quantity can be exploitative. Interest on capital is illegal straightaway. Pre-set wage, in a modern, mass production society, tends to become unfair, before the results of enterprise are made known. Workers may be given a sustenance allowance during periods of production, which should be supplemented in the light of actual results of business. For those who do not enter the work market (like widows, children, old, invalid), Islam has prescribed zakah and infaq. The state also has a role in ensuring an equitable distribution of income: it can abolish interest; legislate for labour-capital participation; provide a legal framework to ensure exploitation-free market operations; and de-limit private property. Analytical. For Muslim economists. Based on primary sources. Documented.
