Abstract

The Holy Qur’an and the Sunnah of the Prophet are full of directives and controls
that regulate consumption in contemporary societies, whether this consumption
is individual or collective. At the same time, it guarantees the excellent use and
disposal of money or available economic resources, so it is not permissible to waste
or spend it on what is useless. Otherwise, the person becomes - with this behavior
- an imbecile that requires a ban on him to prevent him from illegally spending
his money, as Islam is keen. In refining human economic behavior and
consumption spending, there is no extravagance or restriction, but rather
moderation and mediation, and this matter is a restriction in spending that
prevents excess and negligence that ultimately lead to poverty and need. Scarcity
and squandering resources without benefit are both rejected in Islam and do not
achieve the meaning of complete servitude to God Almighty, and moderation and
moderation in spending are commanded by man. , which is consistent with the
economic priorities of Muslim societies. Believing in the duty to contribute to
revealing some aspects of Islam in the field of consumption, the investigator made
this modest attempt to show that Islam possesses controls and restrictions that
enable it to regulate consumption and control the trends of demand among
Muslims in a way that leads to preserving available resources and raising the
efficiency of their use in contemporary societies.
