Surely all praise is for Allah. We praise Him and seek his
help. We seek his forgiveness and we seek refuge in Him from the evil of our
own souls and from the wickedness of our deeds. Whomever He guides shall never
go astray, and whomever He allows to astray shall never find guidance. I bear witness
that none has a right to be worshiped but Allah alone, who has no partner, and
i bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and His last and final messenger.
May, mercy and blessing o f Allah be upon Him and upon His family and His
companions and upon those who follow those in piety untill the Day of Judgment Inshaa Allah ameen.
What is money from the Islamic perspective? Money is serves as an economic lubricant in
which the economic is running. Is like an engine without oil and economy will
not work without. However, many people understand the meaning of money in it context
of its form, as paper money and coins. The
philosophy of money in Islam is that Allah {subhana watala} owned everything in
between the heaven and earth including the underground resources. Allah the almighty
call money as a tool making man {its} administrator [Al-Hadid, 57:7]
And also is
any thing that can be accepted as a means of payment of goods and services in
an economic system. In fact, in ancient times people used stone, animal skins,
salt, and shells as money. At the time of the Prophet (SAW), gold coins
(dinars), which come from the Roman and silver coins (dirham’s), which comes
from the Persian are the two precious metals are regarded as currency. In the
current era, paper money (fiat money) has become a common means of payment used
in all countries in the world. This indicate that we can base our concept on
only referring paper money and coins as
only forms only forms of money but we
have different types or forms of money.
The concept of money in
Islamic point view is that to Allah
belongs the dominion of the
heaven and the earth. Now we look at The description of money in the Holy
Qur’an and the Sunnah:
The , Allah
Most High has created the heavens and the earth and everything between them,
and He is the Only Owner of everything to be found there, and of everything
between them, as well as of everything below the surface of the earth(including
the underground resources).
Allah the Almighty says in the Noble Qur’an:
(To Him belong all that is in the
heavens and all that is on the earth, and all that is between them, and all
that is under the soil.)
[Taha, 20:6] this verse indicate anything that is in between
the Heavens and the Earth is only belongs to Allah {subhana watala} the money
everything exist from Him alone. And He his right to give whomever He wish
without any question.
Wealth
belongs to Allah the Almighty:
Dear brothers, money are been described in the Noble Qur’an
as the Wealth of Allah.
Allah the
Almighty says:
(And give them something yourselves out of the wealth of
Allah which He has bestowed upon you.)
[An-Nur, 24:33]
So, Allah the Almighty refers to the money owned by people as His Own Wealth.
Money as a means of making people administrators:
Allah the Almighty also calls money a tool for making man
(its) administrator.
He says in the
Noble Qur’an:
(Believe in Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad), and spend of
that whereof He has made you trustees. And such of you as believe and spend (in
Allah’s Way); theirs will be a great reward.
[Al-Hadeed, 57:7]
Everything
in the Universe, in the heavens and on earth, and everything under its surface
is owned by Allah, both in terms of creation or action (it is under the Power
of Allah), and destination (it will return to Allah). Basically, Allah the
Almighty owns everything, while man just has the right of dealing (with it),
and Allah the Almighty will call him to account on the Day of Resurrection and
he will be questioned about his money, the way he acquired and spent it.
The
Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: The world is sweet and
green, and verily Allah is going to install you there as successors in order to
see how you acts, [Muslim] we the Human beings must be conscious in dealing
with our affairs the right of Allah {subhana watala} and right of people in an environment.
Money is
ascribed to man as benefit and trial:
Actually, in some ayaat, the possession of money is ascribed
to man. Dear brother also serves as trials should no any wealth that Allah will
account you for in the Day of Judgment.
Allah the
Almighty says in the Noble Qur’an:
(You shall certainly be tried and tested in your wealth and
properties and in your personal selves, and you shall certainly hear much that
will grieve you from those who received the Scripture before you (Jews and
Christians) and from those who ascribe partners to Allah, but if you persevere
patiently, and become Al-Muttaqun then verily, that will be a determining
factor in all affairs, and that is from the great matters, [which you must hold
on with all your efforts].)[Al-Imraan, 3:186] (You shall certainly be tried and
tested in your wealth and properties) The commentators of the Noble Qur’an said
that the ownership of wealth and properties is ascribed to man in terms of
benefit, trial and test. So Allah the Almighty has granted you the ownership of
money in order that you may get benefit from it and to be tested through it.
Money as one
of Allah’s blessings:
Dear brothers, money is one of the blessings of Allah the
Almighty which shows His Mercy with regard to man.
Allah the Almighty says in the Noble Qur’an:
(Did He not find you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) an
orphan and gave you a refuge?* and He found you unaware (of the Quran, its
legal laws, and Prophet Hood, etc.) and guided you?* And He found you poor, and
made you rich (self-sufficient with self-contentment, etc.)?)
[Ad-Duha,
93:6-8]
The good (that there is) in money:
Dear brothers, money is named in the Noble Quran as
something good.
Allah says :(It is
prescribed for you, when death approaches any of you, if he leaves wealth (that
which is good), that he make a bequest to parents and next of kin, according to
reasonable manners. (This is) a duty upon Al-Muttaqun)
[Al-Baqarah,
2:180]
Wealth was also praised by the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, who said: How great is the goodness of wealth when put in the hands of
a righteous man!
In Conclusion, money is the
lifeblood of existence:
It has been transmitted that one of the companions of the
Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: How excellent wealth is! Through it i protect my honor and
get closer to my Lord.
This noble companion defined thus the goals of earning
money. Allah the Almighty clarified that money is the lifeblood of existence
and that people’s sustenance is based on it.
He, Glory to Him, says in the Noble Quran
