Discuss the principle of moral influence on consumption from perspective of Islamic

economy

Islamic economics' guiding principles for consumption are derived from the Qur'an and
Sunnah. Those guiding principles would be the moral framework for consumption, and
consequently, consumer conduct might be something meaningful and purposeful. The
following are the principles of consumption in an Islamic moral framework: The Qura’n,
however, reminds us that since all things are fundamentally a challenge for human beings,
they should be guided to the greater purpose as required by Sharia rather than be distracted
with soul (Qura’n, 3:186). According to the Qur'an, satisfaction of wants only serves to
enhance or console this worldly existence (Qur'an, 18:46). Hence, it is suggested that
people avoid being overly focused on this. Too much attachment to wish fulfilment would
result in tendencies to love riches, which could lead people to deviate significantly from the
Right Path and, as a result, engage in useless or immoral activities that would land them in
Hell. According to the Qur'an, those who follow desires want you to stray from the straight
path, but Allah wishes to treat you generously (Qur'an, 4:27). Consuming products that Allah
has prohibited is considered a prohibited act in Islam. The majority of items that God forbids,
such as carcasses, blood, pork, and wine, will harm the body. A responsible consumption
would be oriented towards the good cause (the cause of Allah) rather than the bad route as
spoken by Satan (the cause of Satan) by consuming immoral, forbidden, or lewd things
(Qura'n, 2:268). Responsible consumption also involves being aware that nothing from
Allah's creation should be lost, wasted, or kept out of circulation because doing so stops its
benefits from reaching society. Since many resources are not used where they should be as
well as society is unable to use them, excessive and inefficient consumption results in
inefficiencies in distribution.
