In Islam, society is a united body where conflict and ranking based on social, class has no place. It consists of people having different skills and capabilities who at the same time are connected exchange services, and collaborate with one other. Every one of these members becomes complete and grows through interaction and exchange with others. Society is made from them and for them. The society is a system formed of different kinds of people. In an Islamic society, no one has any advantage over another. No class has superiority over another, no race has any advantage over another, and no group has any advantage over another. Even the majority has no advantage over the minority or vice versa; the society is simple for the human being. Such a society is built for all people and it is not set up such that only some of man’s dimensions and potentials grow. This society pays attention neither just to individualism and nor to social issues only such that it gives up on individual issues. Therefore, there is no monasticism in Islam. The society is equivalent to all people. It enables the improvement of their skills and provides the opportunity for everyone positive capabilities to develop. In the Islamic view, the difference and variety of nations in the world is to know each other to foster collaboration: this leads to the perfection of human beings in the world and nation’s difference is exactly like people’s difference in the society.
Islam rejects any kind of natural or hereditary dominance of some people over others except the dominance of legitimate guardians over the weak and unable ones. The only legitimate dominance is the one that originates from Almighty Allah or is based on agreement and consensus of people themselves. An Islamic society is the one in which a very productive ground for preserving human values and their promotion exists.
The human beings dependence on the things around him or those belonging to him restrains him from feeling any form of superiority, whether it is racial, hierarchal, and so forth. Nationality, tribe, and family are not worthy of worship and must not become like idols. One cannot develop one of them and ignore other people’s interest as a result. Wealth, like other facilities, is available to people and it is not mean for ruling over anyone. Wealth is a trust and gift from Almighty Allah for the labor can share in the profit made without being liable to any loss, while the investor has liability for benefit of mankind and therefore, what is the most fundamental is the human being and not wealth or means of production. Thus, in Islamic economy, human resources are the primary and most important factor of production. Islamic rulings in social economics are full of humanistic directions. At the same time, Islam tries to prevent money from controlling human beings or just remaining among the rich ones. With respect to dominance, Islam rejects any kind of natural or hereditary dominance of some people over others except the dominance of legitimate guardians over the weak and unable ones. The only legitimate dominance is the one that originates from Almighty Allah or is based on agreement and consensus of people themselves. An Islamic society is the one in which a very productive ground for preserving human values and their promotion exists.
