COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE INSTITUTE OF PROPERTY RIGHTS IN CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM

Abstract

The article attempts to make a comparative theological analysis of the ownership doctrine in two world religions. The relevance of the chosen topic is undeniable, as the confrontation between world religions is growing, and scientific works that can contribute, even to a small extent, to establishing dialogue and mutual understanding are in great demand. Property relations are both socio-economic and legal. The same type of relationships that arise when property owners engage in the production, distribution, exchange, and consumption of limited resources and material assets manifests itself as socio-economic relations and property relations. For these reasons, the formation and development of property relations and the creation of effective mechanisms for institutional regulation in modern society are of great importance. This article describes and evaluates various theoretical and methodological approaches to this problem. The novelty of this work lies in the fact that very few serious theological studies offer a systematic comparative analysis. An examination of the formation and development of the justification of property will allow us to understand the reasons, sources, and specifics of the value content of Christian and Islamic consciousness concerning property and wealth.
