PHILOSOPHICAL ASPECTS OF THE IDEA OF SOCIAL JUSTICE IN THE VIEWS OF ABU YUSUF

Abstract

This article analyzes Abu Yusuf's great efforts to improve the peace of citizens, their material and spiritual life, based on the study of his scientific heritage. It has been shown that Abu Yusuf's explanation of the types of taxes based on specific evidence in the development of the Islamic tax system greatly helped in regulating the country's economic life in the state administration system.

Abu Yusuf is one of the Muslim scholars who made a great contribution to Islamic economic thought. He was the first Muslim scholar to raise the question of market mechanisms, and later his ideas were widely used by many prominent scholars.

Islam established certain moral and social boundaries with justice and defined socio-economic principles that prevent injustice in the use of material wealth. Adherence to these principles will help a person to find halal sustenance on earth and to find God's approval in the Hereafter. Islamic economics introduces certain moral qualities that serve to ensure social justice at various levels.

The economic-philosophical foundations of Abu Yusuf's idea of social justice are important in the relations between the state and citizens. Abu Yusuf was not only a judge, but also Harun al-Rashid's adviser, both a judge and a scholar of jurisprudence. Along with the Holy Qur'an and hadiths, he used mental observations in his philosophical, socio-political and economic views. The economic ideas of Abu Yusuf's book "Kitab al-kharaj" were used as the main guide in the fight against injustice at that time. His ideas are based on Islamic principles of equality and justice.
