There are many other Ayat (verses) in the Quran on<br />

this topic, ordering Allah’s slaves to help one another in<br />

what will bring about their material and religious benefit.<br />

Allah ordered Muslims to help one another in piety<br />

and righteousness, including fulfilling the terms of their<br />

legal contracts and protecting their mutual rights using<br />

permissible means. He also warned them against<br />

transgressing each other’s rights and properties. Allah also<br />

enemies. Strength, cooperation, righteous legislation and<br />

careful preparation will allow the <strong>Islam</strong>ic economy to thrive<br />

safely, as well as, help Muslims increase their wealth, and<br />

acquire their needs and legal benefits using the methods<br />

that Allah has allowed for them.<br />
