The Economic System of Islam

Taqiuddin an-Nabhani

This is a glimpse into the foundations upon which the capitalist economic system is based, and the foundations upon which the socialist, and thus communist, economic system is based, with a brief indication of the falsehood and corruption in these foundations. This is from one perspective. From another perspective, it contradicts the Islamic method of addressing problems and is contrary to Islam. As for its contradiction of the Islamic method of addressing problems, the Islamic way of dealing with economic problems is the same as its way of dealing with every human problem, which is to study the reality of the economic problem, understand it, and then derive a solution to the problem from the Sharia texts after studying these texts and ensuring their applicability to it. This is in contrast to the economic rulings and treatments in capitalism and socialism. In capitalism, the treatments are taken from the reality of the problem after studying it, and in socialism, they are taken from theoretical assumptions that are imagined to exist in the problem, and the treatment is based on these assumptions. Each of these two methods contradicts the Islamic method, so it is not permissible for a Muslim to adopt it. As for the contradiction of the capitalist and socialist, and thus communist, economy with Islam, it is because Islam only takes its treatments as Sharia rulings, derived from Sharia evidence, and these capitalist and socialist economic treatments are not Sharia rulings, but are from the system of disbelief. Judging things by them is judging by other than what God has revealed, and it is not permissible for a Muslim to adopt them in any way. Taking them is sinful if the taker does not believe in them, but if he believes that they are the correct rulings, and that the rulings of Islam do not suit the modern era, nor do they treat modern economic problems, then that is disbelief, God forbid.
