Ba kamar yadda duniyar yau take ba, kamar yadda Yammacin Jari-hujja ke yadawa, Musulunci yana ganin cewa babbar matsalar tattalin arziki da dan Adam zai taba fuskanta ita ce ta rarraba dukiya, ba ta samarwa ba. A idon Yammacin Jari-hujja, akwai karancin albarkatu a duniya, kuma bukatun mutane game da wadannan albarkatu ba su da iyaka. Saboda haka kowace kasa, ma a zahiri duniya baki daya, ya kamata ta mayar da hankali wajen kara samarwa. Yawan dukiyar da aka samar, yawan mutanen da za su biya bukatunsu ta hanyar aikin tattalin arziki, kamar yadda ka'idar ta ce.

Unlike the current world view as pushed by the Capitalist West, Islam considers that the main economic problem that mankind will ever have is that of distribution of wealth and not of production. In the eyes of the Capitalist West, there is relative scarcity of resources available in the world, and people’s demands for these resources are endless. Hence each nation and in fact, the world, should concentrate on more and more production. The higher the amount of wealth produced, the higher the number of people that will satisfy their demands through the process of economic activity, or so the theory goes.
