Abstract

The aim of this study is to explore the different transcriptions and cognitive perceptions of the notion of Zakāt in French literature from 1660 to 2017. The study lists twenty-three transcriptions and thirty-two cognitive perceptions. Most interpret it in their own way, according to their experiences, their feelings, and the time devoted to its knowledge, although scholarly literature is not lacking. This highlights the importance of the Orwell’s problem: How is it that human beings know so little when they have access to so much knowledge? Hence the need to differentiate, beyond the essentialization of others, between the existence of the object, its representation, and the way to arrive at its knowledge. Zakat is not merely a technical question, it embodies a vision of the life in society where money is not an end; it is a means for a higher purpose.

Abstract

The aim of the study is to explore the limitations of financial indicators of wealth and poverty in the light of a systemic approach which considers zakat assets as a system composed of parts that can interact with each other beyond first appearances. This allows human communities to attract what is beneficial and repel what is harmful in all circumstances, especially in times of crises and pandemics. Among the most important results reached by the study: the need to design indicators that are not only based on the quantity of money held by people, to highlight the quantities, volumes, sizes and areas related to resources to preserve the diversity of living things and ecosystems. The study recommends rehabilitation of the role of local actors in the design of indicators so that they are not the exclusive prerogative of international experts who are far removed from the daily concerns. This promotes freedom of initiative in the governance of local affairs in favour of the ‘de-financialization’ of human life.
