Continuation
There is in the philosophical sense no intrinsic wealth, although
the right of inheritance:
ü is protected;
ü and specifically
prescribed under Sharia,
which allows for the:
o preservation of
property;
o its devolution;
o and accumulation.
Nonetheless, there is the implied premise that wealth should
be legitimized through work.
In addition, wealth must also be used for good of others:
§ such as the needy;
§ and for the
community as a whole.
The greater one's wealth and power, the greater is the
responsibility to use them properly.
In many respects work is considered a form of piety.
