Economic system in Islam (17)

Continuation

There are many other examples of income to the collective possession, which can be consulted in the Islamic legislation books.

(c). State's Possession

Author writes that:

State's possession differs from other kinds of possession not only in the sources of income but in utilization and fields of expenditure also.

There are specific sources of income to this economic sector, like the so-called (Dead land).

The evidence of this in the Qur'an is the following verse:

"They ask you concerning "Anfal" (accessions) say "Anfal" is at the disposal of God and the Apostle."

Qur'an, 8:1

The Prophet is mentioned here as a representative of the Islamic Government.

The ways in which this wealth is used are many.

One of the basic channels is helping poor people to work, by offering small capital or building a factory for their employment.
