Zakat cannot solve the problem of poverty within a capitalist society because the market is structured to bring about the wage to the cost of production of labour-power.

Islam vs Capitalism; A brief comparison 1. BASIC CONCEPT: Capitalism: Needs are unlimited, resources are limited. If resources are increased, it will gradually decrease poverty by trickle down effect. Islam: Needs are either basic or luxurious. Basic needs are right of every human. Resources are enough, they just need to be distributed through proper mechanism. 2. OWNERSHIP: Capitalism: Everything can be owned privately if you have enough money. Islam: Property is either private, public or state owned. Not everything can go into private property. 3. COMPANY STRUCTURE: Capitalism: Separation of owners and management. Owners will get the profit, management will bear the loss. Islam: Rules of partnership must be followed. Owners must be defined and bear the loss alongwith profit. 4. TAXATION Capitalism: Everyone must pay taxes, regardless of being rich or poor. Islam: Poor does not pay tax. Rather state provides from Bait ul Maal to poor. 5. AGRICULTURE AND LAND LAWS: Capitalism: One who owns the land, decides whether to cultivate or not Islam: Land not cultivated for 3 years is taken & given to those who can cultivate. 6. FOREIGN LOANS Capitalism: You need to pay all interest based foreign loans Islam: only principle amount is returned, interest is not allowed no matter what 7. PATENT & COPYRIGHT LAWS Capitalism: Technology is captured by few capitalists through patent laws Islam: Technology can be used & copied by anyone and anyone can develop new technology using idea of old one. 8. DUTIES Capitalism: Importers & exporters must pay duties for their product Islam: There is no duty, except for the importers of Darul Harb (State that is in war with khilafah) with the tit&tat policy. 9. TRADE PARTNERSHIP Capitalism: Partners in stock exchange are not well defined. Islam: You need to define partners and shares. Business should not vague 10. MONOPOLY AND HOARDING Capitalism: Companies can own and store anything and create monopoly Islam: Monopoly is not allowed in any sector, specially food items. 11. EXCHANGE OF ITEMS Capitalism: Exchange item with countries who grow it better than you. Islam: State must be self sufficient, not dependent. State should continuously work on making things better. 12. MONEY PRINTING Capitalism: Currency is FIAT, state is allowed to print money to fulfill requirements, ultimately resulting in inflation Islam: Currency is gold/silver backed. Hyperinflation is very unusual.

Assalamualaikum Sir, Merai khayal me apkai analysis video ka title “ Why charity cannot solve poverty” hona chahiye instead of “ why zakat cannot solve poverty”. Zakat is not just a charity but it’s an organised system which leads to a systematic development of a community, but we are unfortunate that distribution of zakat in our countries are managed individually not by an trusted ameer. For example: 1. A story of man came to prophet s.a.w as his family was going through faqah( hunger) and prophet s.a.w didn’t gave him money/food but asked him to sell his utensil/bowl and he purchased an axe and some food with the money. That’s how he managed to cut wood every day and look after his family. 2. In the early years of nabuwat the times were tough, Arabs faced scarcity of food, water and money. By the time Islam achieved its peak Arabs found it difficult to distribute zakat as there were no poor. 3. Like I said zakat used to be managed by ameer, It never used to get distributed just in the form of money but for a. Arms and ammunition b. Education c. Training and development d. marriages e. Pension d. looking after widows and orphans Etc

As a practicing Muslim who has done his research, I agree with your conclusion. However, you rule out the fact that Islam prohibits usury altogether. 2.5 to 10 percent tax in a system where there is no interest could be enough. Also remember Islam is the religion that challenges capatislim on many many fronts. There are many authentic ahadith on the distribution of land and natural resources. On that front it is close to communism.
@arjuncalidas27362 жыл бұрын
The example of India is not very suitable in this context. India has had land reforms in the past, the biggest being the one implemented in West Bengal. However, despite decades of communist rule, the state still underperforms in key social and economic indicators. And the case is reversed as far as Kerala and Tamil Nadu are concerned. The two states have close to zero poverty, but Kerala still lags behind in industrial development, while Tamil Nadu boasts of the second largest economy in the country. Tamil Nadu is highly industrialised and has an extremely diversified economy, and the state is the most urbanised in the country at over 50% of the population living in urban areas. Tamil Nadu's economy is comparable to the entire economy of Pakistan. It also has extremely low levels of unemployment and poverty (absolute poverty in the literal sense is non-existent). This is due to Keynsian economics which does depend on high and far reaching public sector. Dr Rahman would do very well to study the economics of these three states to see how democratically elected socialist governments (Kerala and WB had communist governments for decades, while TN's politics is completely dominated by social democrats and is mostly left leaning as far as economics is concerned) function in very similar, yet very different ways in the context of the subcontinent. When you clump India as one country, it would become extremely simplistic. And Pakistanis in general tend to view just the North of India as India. I hope Dr Rahman takes this into account while synthesizing problems.

If cost of production is decreased due to charity/zalat, then wages will also decrease, hence the producer can use the extra savings from Dec wages to increase means of production via machinery, which will again cause more demand of labor and increase production and hence wealth generation. As our cost of production/wages Decrease then our product will also cost less, hence more can be sold/exported and hence more demand for our products outside of our cities and nation. Also with Dec wages there will be generally less buying power, hence cost of land/house, cost of car, cost of food etc will also Dec with it, causing marginal inflation.

So, if Capitalist class try to keep wages lover or exploiting labour class, people have social security in a system of zakat system and they are protected if they can't do any thing, they try to avoid exploited by these Capitalist and the demand for labour increases...... And the increased demand for labour also have positive impact on the wages of the labour class..

Very nice explanation for capitalism & zakat. But in my underdtanding zakat is not for poverty allevation directly.its the amount of tax which at max government can claim from its citizen. So there is fixed amount on savings(2.5%after 1 year) and also on income(5%,10%or 20%,detuctable at source ).but government can not claim any other tax technically.e.g duties and registration costs . My understanding mostly based on Javid Ahmed Ghamdi's disscussion over zakat.

Without being fair/just no financial/economical system can succeeded. In 2 years of Omar bin Abdul Aziz no one was left to collect Zakat due to fair distribution of it. We have to implement full Islamic Eco system to get and gain it benefits of it and transparency and Justice are of prime importance in it. Demand and supply and its effect to prices is a natural and ancient thing I dont know why you related to 16th century capitalism.

Interesting analysis. The way I see it, you have analyzed the use of zakat and concluded that it is of no use in current capitalist system, please correct me If I have understood it in a wrong way. Why not to put it this way? The way we are giving away our zakat needs to be changed. Rather than just giving it away for food and things, why not to use it to make sustainable economic solutions available for poor. So, yes! zakat is the solution. How to use it is the question kept open by Islam and the answer is dynamic and to be decided as per the needs of the time. But, this solution also brings another question on table. How to involve people, like people with special needs, into economic cycle to help them meet their ends need? So, it means both of the things need to be run in parallel. We can apply 80/20 rule here, just a random thought. Last but not least, thank you for sharing this analysis. It really was a food for thought. It changed my perspective on dispatch of Zakat.

He is confusing zakat with sadaqah. Zakat is a tax that any collective system is allowed to collect. 2.5% on wealth. 5% on gross revenue in activities of labor + capital. 10% if either only labor or capital is employed. 20% when neither is used (resource extraction etc.). This restriction on taxation limits the size and overreach of governments to wage wars and oppress people. The great blessing of Allah. The land reform he is referring to, I guess, is De Soto Mystery of Capitalism. It's not the land, property title clarity and enforcement which create collateral for capital formation.

It doesn't mean that you go at expensive restaurant to eat but it is given to extant your source through any pity business such as Rehri of Fruits or some thing else. Otherwise, Video is good

Very true. At the very best what Zakat and charity does is mitigate the suffering of the underprivileged, not eliminate it. No Muslim should be claiming that. Please correct if I am wrong, but are you suggesting to substitute the reallocation of land ownership over giving Zakat? You haven't explicitly said so but your solution seems to be as unidimensional as those suggesting Zakat would solve all problems. Granted you have given examples of China and Vietnam as successful models. Here are a few thoughts I would like to share: Isn't social reality surrounding poverty, especially in rural and peri-urban settings, more complex than just to reduce the issue to only focus on the ownership of land and its access through redistribution? How does transferring land ownership address the vacuum of basic healthcare services on which human wellbeing is contingent? Educational services to increase chances of social mobility? How does it address malnutrition considering the variance of climate and agricultural produce across the world? Empowering oppressed women? Mental health? Digital services? Adapting agricultural practices to climate change? How is your suggestion equipping rural areas from not being disenfranchised from the newly emerging AI economy? Are we just assuming that once they have land they will slowly be able to solve all these problems all by themselves? Do rural communities even have enough time to build such capacities?

@@8lec_R I completely agree. It's about integrating AI into the rural economy before a large segment of the rural population is rendered economically obsolete . There are many cases of urban small businesses in transport and food distribution that have become obsolete because of techno-centric corporations monopolising such services. This pseudospeciation is currently being replicated in a much more insidious way in peri-urban and rural settings. And yes here the land argument becomes more relevant in terms of urbanisation encroaching on rural lands in the pursuit of its exploitative expansion. But its only one dimension of the whole issue

@@faizipop I agree with you 100% My point of contention was (albeit not that important since all this talk is purely theoretical as we are nowhere near achieving all these things) AI. So far it's only proven useful for a very small subset of applications that are part of a bigger whole. Like simulations for example. Those simulations are not directly helpful in anything but can be used to inform us of our next steps. So far for important things like land reform or resource allocation, I cannot trust AI since the models it relies on can be biased without the user even realising it. Hope this clears up my point

@@8lec_R I got where you were coming from beforehand but thanks for clarifying it nonetheless :) though we are digressing, I concur completely on the historical biases that accumulate over time in data sets, which are then used in enhancing machine learning capabilites of AI. Moreover there are also social biases which inadvertently lead to the collection of sample sizes which do not accurately reflect the total set of variances from which the sample itself has been extracted. Hence at the end racial and gender biases creep up despite no direct involvement by a human being in the "objective" decision making process of that specific AI.

There is NO SYSTEM that can eliminate poverty forever. This is true for all systems including capitalist, socialist, communist, and so called Islamic systems. The underlying teaching of zakat is conscious moral intervention by the God fearing people at individual level. This type of moral intervention is needed at the govt. level too. In physics we know that it is impossible to make a perpetual machine. Similarly in economics it is impossible to design a system which is inherently fair. Dr. Rehman is correct in criticizing the naivity of those who believe that zakat as a system alone would do the magic. But the same was true for many communist countries in the twentieth century. Soviet Russia had to import grains to feed its impoverished people. China escaped poverty only after economic liberalisation. Scandinivian countries on the other hand implemented a high tax (zakat) welfare system. It is CONSCIOUS moral intervention on a continual basis that can keep a system flexible. But what is the source of moral values for a secularist?
@mohammadharisfahim66142 жыл бұрын
Zakat can be a source for the government to fund support price mechanism. In a perfectly competitive market, the government can so much intervene as to fix the quota of production that producers or firms has to sell to the government and the rest can be sold in the market. That quota can be funded through zakat and make its way to Utility Stores. Zakat is not cash handouts as Prof sb has assumed (he is not to be blamed since he has only seen this kind of Zakat because there is no Islamic government today who may implement zakat based welfare economics).

Zakat is obligation from God. It still needs to be carried out even though it won't end poverty. It is an obligatory duty. Furthermore, the objective of zakat is not to end poverty. It is just a social security system. As western countries collect taxes & use those taxes for social security. Zakat is just that kind of security. The difference is that Zakat is obligation of Allah. You have to pay it, no matter how it is impacting the society. China has pulled out 800 million from poverty but there are still poor in China. The same is the case in the west. There are old people, who are unable to work. There orphans who cannot work. There are women of children who, albeit working hard, would find it difficult to make ends meet. There needs to be a social security system. Every country has it. For Muslims, we have it in the form of Zakat. According to census.gov, there was 11.4 percent poverty in USA in 2020, up from 10pc in 2019. Recently, I have seen many scholars & organizations saying that we need to change shareholder capitalism to stakeholder capitalism, because problems of economy can be solved in this way. Zakat is a stakeholder system, not shareholder system. In conclusion, zakat is not there to end poverty. It is an obligation from God. If you want to end poverty, then you need some robust economic program. Although there will always be poor in the society and society needs to be able to support them. You cannot eliminate poverty completely.

Actually, Zakat is a wealth tax and not an income tax. So if landlords had to pay their full share of Zakat on the value of their land, they will not have free cash to pay their Zakat so they would have to sell of their land for paying the Zakat. Hence, land redistribution would occur via Zakat itself. Please do not underestimate the wisdom of Allah.

Land is not property.....land is a source of income.... A landowner would produce say wheat on his land and then sell that wheat at a.profit. Deduct the expenses , what is left are the savings...from these savings deduct the nisab amount and then calculate the Zakat. No land would be sold.

To be honest, the whole system of zakat in today's world is outdated. Reason being that we know pay taxes on our income and spending in the form of federal, provincial and municipal levels. Then there is sales tax that is included in the price. Then there are duties that are embedded in the price of products and services we buy. The idea is zakat is strictly social welfare, which should be taken out from the taxes we pay above under the responsibility of the government.
