أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ سَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِي الْأَرْضِ
Do you not see that Allah has put at your disposal (to use) whatever is upon the earth? (Al-Hajj 65).
حُكْمُ الأشياء وحُكْمُ الأفعال
The Hukm Of Things And The Hukm Of Actions
يُقْدِمُ الإنسانُ على أفعالِه لإشباعِ غرائزِه وحاجاتِه العضويةِ. فيُشْبِعُ، مثلًا، غريزةَ النَّوعِ أو التَّناسُلِ (غريزةَ النَّوعِ الإنسانيِّ) بالزَّواجِ، ويُشْبِعُ غريزةَ البقاءِ بتملُّكِ الأموالِ، وغريزةَ التَّدَيُّنِ بأداءِ العباداتِ. ويُشْبِعُ حاجاتِه العضويةَ بالأكلِ والشُّربِ والنَّومِ وغيرِ ذلك مِن الأفعالِ.
The human undertakes his actions in order to satisfy his instincts and organic needs. So for instance he satisfies his instinct of (human) kind or procreation (Ghareezat An-Naw’i) through marriage, he satisfies the survival instinct (Ghareezat ul-Baqaa’) through the ownership of property and the instinct of religiosity (Ghareezat At-Tadayyun) through acts of worship. He satisfies his organic needs by eating, drinking and sleeping amongst other such actions.
