Welfare State And View Of Javed Ahmed Ghamidi
So basically if a Muslim state is established on Islamic principles, they cannot impose taxes above that of Zakat (without consent ofc). I have read Zakat ka Qanoon chapter from Meezan. At a glance it seems like that wouldn’t collect enough revenues in order to make sure the high quality of services that we in western countries in transport, health and social care, and primary and secondary education. But I must say that this comment of mine is not based on any deep analysis. I think there is a need for a deeper analysis in order to show if it really would work in modern times. Do you agree? Also, please also tell that is it allowed for a Muslim state to force private companies to allocate funds that would cover health costs of their low tier employees and their families? (Many companies already do that, but can it be forced by the state?) Because this will significantly help the workers and be counted as a strong labor law.
