Zakat is imposed on Muslims, one of the show the pros of Islam, to the large benefits as achieved by payment need the poor, and install the bonds of affection between the rich and the poor because the souls naturally inclined to love the best of it, and cleanse the soul and sponsorship and dimension by creating stinginess and miserliness, and other numerous benefits.                                                                                     Zakat and the right of God Almighty may not be favoritism by those who do not deserve the motive for the dissemination of this research is to advise and recalled the obligation of zakat, which is tolerated by many Muslims did not cast them out on the face of the project with the bone will  Qudaamah Ben Jaafar started talking about Zakat directly, did not witness the obligatory verse in the Quran or the Prophetic tradition, probably came from the Zakat one pillars of Islam and it is obligatory it has become obvious to every Muslim can not be denied, it shows us Qudamah conditions zakat camels, but he began to direct to mention a quorum, if it reached the quorum, it is evident that the zakat camels through what was said Qudamah it is not sex, as in every five camels sheep until it reaches twenty-four and then be zakaah of her sex, and supported by both the Abu Hanif and that the amount of zakat camels and Malik Shafi'i and Imam Ahmad, Ibn Hazm, though the front violated it and saw that in the twenty-five camels five Xiah.

The Way

AbstractAll Churches and Missionary Movements in different parts of the world assert without hesitation that in all that they do, they follow the way of Jesus Christ. But the gross injustice in international economic dealings promoted by the so-called 'Christian Nations' in the world and the consequent widening of the gap between the rich and the poor in the world, the discrimination of people on the basis of creed, class, race and colour practised by many Christians and the power-struggle and corruption found in many local churches make the world wonder, the way of which Christ these Christians follow! The image of the Biblical Jesus is that of the Servant-leader, crowned with thorns, who emptied himself of all worldly riches, pomp and power and laid down his life as a ransom for many. Since the time of Emperor Constantine, this thorn-crowned servant Jesus is turned into a gold-crowned King, an anti-Christ with the face of 'Mammon', the idol of riches and power. Since one cannot worship God and Mammon at the same time, it is mandatory on the part of us all faithful Christians, to introspect ourselves and decide, the way of which Christ we want to follow.

This paper is titled" Attitude to Give Offerings According to the Gospel of Mark 12: 41-44 ". Mark's Gospel was written by Mark himself and this Gospel of Mark is the earliest Gospel written, which is between 65 and 70 AD before the Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed and Mark's Gospel is also the shortest of the four Gospels. This book was shown to the Jews to introduce Christ as a servant. Specifically the Gospel of Mark 12: 41-44 tells how Jesus showed His disciples the attitude of the rich and the widows of the poor in giving offerings. This shows that Jesus wanted to tell everyone and specifically to the students how the right attitude in giving offerings. The text Jesus shows about the attitude of the rich and poor widows in making offerings in the Temple. In addition, in the context of the Gospel of Mark 12: 41-44, Jesus showed His disciples the right attitude in offering. Jesus' purpose here is to direct the attention of His disciples to the poor widow. The poor widow gives more offerings than the offerings of rich people, because she gives from her shortcomings while rich people give from abundance. So through this article we can open the understanding of believers to have the right attitude to offer.

This chapter evaluates how poor countries achieve economic growth in the face of all the obstacles posed by the rich countries. The most successful ones have used a highly advanced form of big government — a strategy known to economists as the developmentalist state. This strategy was designed by Japan in the late nineteenth century, perfected by South Korea in the 1960s and 1970s, and brought to a high level of polish by the Chinese today. The key is having a very strong set of government economic planners who tell private companies how they should invest. These countries are not anticapitalist. Companies are privately owned; profits accrue to the owners. But anyone who wants to stay in the good graces of the government follows the official government plan. What Japan, Korea, and China actually did is they restricted firm ownership to locals, keeping multinational corporations out; strictly limited imports for consumption; and massively invested in education. They also developed a long-term plan for the nation to go into the right industries at the right time; induced private firms to cooperate with the national plan by having the government guarantee sales, profits, and cheap credit; and prevented Korean firms from going soft by setting strict performance standards in the middle term.

The purpose of this article was to compare Jerome’s and Augustine’s sermons on the fifth book of the Psalms with regard to their views on the rich and the poor. After a brief consideration of the different audiences of Jerome and Augustine, we focused on their attitudes to wealth and poverty, and almsgiving and its relationship to eschatology. In both Jerome’s and Augustine’s commentaries we were confronted with problems regarding the nature of the collections, the composition of the audiences, and a lack of overlap between the two works, but it was possible to discern congruences and differences in their exegesis. In their preaching on poverty and riches, both homilists associated Judas with the devil and wealth. With regard to the identification of Christ and the poor, Jerome offers a somewhat uneasy exegesis in explaining that Christ stands at the right hand of the pauper, although the Lord himself is rich. Augustine mentioned the identification of Christ and the poor a few times in Enarrationes in Psalmos and framed the poverty of Christ within the body of the church, emphasising the common humanity of his congregation. In his sermons, mainly delivered to monks, Jerome advocated total renunciation. Augustine made more allowances for human frailty, advocating partial and gradual dispossession. The Songs of Ascent provided both our authors with the opportunity to consider the place of almsgiving in an eschatological context.Contribution: We investigate the views of two prominent Latin fathers on wealth and poverty in their sermons on Psalms 109–150. The focus on wealth and poverty is evident. Judas is identified with the rich and Christ with the poor, placing Christ and riches against each other in an either/or position.

This letter of James is shown to the twelve tribes in the overseas, those who are being tossed around related to the socioeconomic level faced by the church, namely the problem between the rich and the poor. So this letter was written before the year 62 AD. In this article we write about the implementation of the blessed expression of those who endure trials in James 1: 12-15. The background is where James says that those who are happy are those who endure trials. In this context it talks about how people's attitudes in the face of temptation, in this case James appealed to the twelve tribes that are overseas so that they endure trials, love God more, persevere in their faith, and are always faithful to God when facing trials. Real happiness is that people are blessed by God, but the problem is only limited to understanding but when confronted with a problem, trials, and lack of needs to be unhappy, less grateful for what is experienced. Therefore this article reminds believers of the true principle of happiness.

To what extent is some poverty necessary for economic growth? Doespoverty motivate the poor to work harder, enabling them to both escape theirpoverty and in the process increase the total wealth of society? Or does povertyon balance promote those negative influences such as ill-health and a lack ofproper education that prevent the poor, and hence society, from attaining itsfull wealth potential? What effect does a redistribution of wealth from rich topoor have upon the growth rate? Would the poor manage the extra wealththereby gained in a manner more beneficial for society than when the rich managedit? How does income disparity within an economy wax and wane asgrowth takes place, and how does income disparity between economies changein the face of globalization? Perhaps most important of all, what can politicaleconomists learn from past experiences in informing policy recommendationsfor the future?Such are the questions to which two professors of economics address inGrowth, Inequality and Globalization: Theory, History, and Policy. In the firstof two discussions on the topic, phillipe Aghion from University CollegeLondon adopts a largely mathematical approach. In the second discussion,Jeffery G. Williamson from Harvard undertakes an empirical analysis. Thesetwo approaches compliment one another rather well.Two ideas are generally handed down to the modem student of economicson the relationship between growth and wealth inequality. One is based uponan incentives theory according to which inequality promotes faster growth. Theother derives from the Kuznet's hypothesis which holds that, as an economypasses through a growth phase, inequality first increases and then decreaseswith the onset of maturity. Aghion labels both of these ideas as fallacies, brieflyciting recent evidence which shows widening income inequality in the UnitedStates. His mathematical modeling further shows that, under certain circumstances,increases in inequality (as measured by the increased dispersion ofinvestment holdings among members of the society) can lead to lower growth.This is because the marginal return on investment for the poor is greater thanfor the rich. In plain language, poor people can create more wealth with anadditional unit of investment assets than the rich can. Hence, if the rich haveall the assets, society as a whole may not achieve the highest available returns.In a perfect capital market, the rich could perhaps lend or invest their surplus ...

In this study we examine the representation of income groups in two EU-level institutions, the Council and the European Parliament. We find that the political positions of these institutions, and especially of the Council, are always on the right compared to European citizens, though closer to the wealthy among them. However, a more systematic analysis of congruence between different income groups and the Council reveals that while the poor are systematically underrepresented, the rich are not systematically over-represented. This holds both when we examine the poor and the rich across the EU as a whole and when we cluster them according to their respective member states.

This chapter analyses social antisemitism. Antisemitism was also a protest against a social system, and the expression of social tension and conflict. “The important cause of antisemitism,” according to Cesare Lombroso in 1899, was “the antagonism between the poor and the rich.” However, although it did have features that justified the label in the context of the 1890s, and although it clearly reflected social unrest, the function of antisemitism, based as it was on a mistaken and “irrational” social diagnosis, and having a fundamentally conservative aim, was rather to mask class conflict and to divert resentments into a channel that did not threaten the existing social system. In the words of Anatole Leroy-Beaulieu, it was “a kind of socialism sui generis, a socialism of the Right.” There is no doubt that many antisemites saw themselves as engaged in a movement of social protest, a protest of the poor against the rich, as Lombroso suggested, and also of the individual against the system. The example of Edouard Drumont, by far the most popular exponent of antisemitism in the period, is instructive.

The study was aimed at examining the role of high tax rises on the spending patterns of the people in Accra township of Ghana. The research gathered data from both secondary and primary sources and used the quantitative research method approach. The key instruments used for the data collection was questionnaire. In all seventy (70) respondents were selected for the study comprising thirty five (35) people from Accra township and thirty five (35) University of Ghana students. The study found out that taxation is very good for nation building since the allocation of funds depends upon the collection of taxes and the government used that revenue for specific purposes. This has a direct economic impact on the socio economic development of Ghana. The study found out that there is a fairly strong relationship between people spending and high tax rises. That is to say the study found out that when tax is high it affects people spending negatively especially the poor because it reduces their income levels, put a tax burden on them, it increases their expenditure and it also increases poverty. The study found out that to be able to ensure effectiveness and efficiency in our tax system it is essential to strike the right balance between designing an attractive tax, there must be transparency and effectiveness in the tax system, tax reform needs to be promoted to widen the tax base and bring a larger part of the population into the formal economy and also tax must reduce excessive reliance on aid and offers a path away from unsustainable revenue streams  It is recommended that the government of Ghana should structure the tax based system in a way that there is no inequality in the payment by the poor and the rich and also the people of Ghana should understand the importance of taxation for the development of Ghana and hence there should not be invasion of tax since tax brought to light the importance of tax.
