Evaluating the Pros and Cons of Financial Sacrifice Based upon Ethical Teachings of the Book and Tradition
Aliakbar Kalantari *
Abstract:   (5546 Views)

Among the ethical teachings of the Quran and hadith about generosity and charity, some viewpoints admire sacrifice and praise those who are willing to sacrifice; on the contrary, apparent provisions of some other viewpoints not only disapprove this job but also impose prohibition on doing so. However, implications of some of these reasons are confronted by some problems and they should be reflected upon. Nevertheless, since we are faced with reliable and strong reasons among both viewpoints, we need to attempt to remove the opposition between them and harmonize them all in a kind of agreement. By reflecting on the statements and contents of these teachings it is determined that each class of them is concerned about a specific case; therefore, opposition between them is obviated and within each class, we can take actions on its own specific case

Keywords: Sacrifice, Financial Sacrifice, Charity, Generosity, Ethical Challenge
