    The phrase “The Kalam of Allah is not like our Kalam” is often used to explain the nature of Allah speech in relation to human language and communication.

    The statement highlights the belief that Allah speech is better, perfect, and transcendent, while human speech is finite, imperfect, and subject to interpretation. Therefore, the Kalam of Allah, or Allah speech, cannot be compared to the Kalam of humans.

    This statement emphasizes the incomparable nature of God and His wisdom, as well as the limitations of human language and understanding when it comes to fully comprehend Allah communication. It also serves as a reminder to Muslims that when they recite the Quran or engage in religious discourse, they are dealing with human language and discourse that is subject to interpretation and cannot fully capture the depth and complexity of Allah communication.

    Overall, the phrase “The Kalam of Allah is not like our Kalam” is an important theological concept in Islamic philosophy that helps to reinforce the nature of Allah communication and the limitations of human language and understanding.

    The Islamic economic system, on the one hand, aims to guarantee individual liberty, freedom of choice, private property and enterprise, the profit motive and possibilities of unlimited effort and reward. On the other hand, it seeks to provide effective moral filters at different levels of life and activity and established institutions in the voluntary sector, as well as through state apparatus to ensure economic development and social justice in the society.
    Islam does not prescribe a particular economic system but provides the core elements and principles, which form the basic philosophy of a system or an economy. Islam provides primarily normative principles for economics and finance. However, it is not devoid of positive economic statements or hypotheses. Several areas of economics are truly positive and cannot be different in an Islamic or in any other framework.
