A Theory of Justice According to the Tawhidi Epistemic Worldview
摘要
In this chapter, many important principles and characteristics of the Islamic socioeconomic and socio-scientific order have been established. Among these are the principle and concept of social (distributive) justice according to the Qur’an, the principle of moral entitlement, and the instrument of avoidance of waste in both consumption and production. Besides the elaborate discussion of the underlying issues, the Islamic ethico-economic general-equilibrium system was developed in its technical form. The role of spending, the avoidance of waste, the avoidance of interest transactions, the replacement of the concept of savings as a function of interest rate by the concept of mobilization of resources into Tawhidi-prescribed ways of spending, all by use of the IIE(θ(ε))-model, were examined in the socio-scientific framework with especial attention to the ethico-economic general equilibrium. The Tawhidi precept was integrated with this general-equilibrium system. In the end, the dynamics of the Tawhidi methodological worldview were premised on a generalized knowledge-centered model of the socio-scientific order. The dynamic process was ineluctably premised in the episteme of unity of divine knowledge, which the endogenous nature of ethics in the moral inclusiveness of the system was explained to be simulated through the recurrence of the Tawhidi IIE(θ(ε))-process model. This model was equivalently explained by the shura-tasbih practice.
