Every
society has a diversity of jobs to be done. It needs sweepers
as much as shopkeepers, book-keepers, as well as leaders and
so on. Quran alludes to this diversity of endeavours or jobs
in 92:4. But in virtually every society today, those who have
amassed some wealth are always at a vantage point to be able
to earn more than the deprived, either through investments
or interest. Also those who are sharp-minded, shrewd or more
intelligent than others are more likely to earn more than
those who are less so. But isn't it injustice. Shouldn't man
be rewarded by measure of his endeavours and not by measure
of his intelligence or capital? Quran suggests a system in
which people are rewarded by the measure of their endeavours
[20:15], whereby no one can have more than what he strives
for [53:39].
