Abstract
Negative ηi,j(θ)-values denote marginal rates of substitution except when they denote the replacement of “bads.” There cannot be substitution between “goods” in an endogenously knowledge-induced Islamic socioeconomic order. Likewise, the shari'ah avoidance of “bads” does not legitimate the acceptance of a quantity of one bad by another bad, negating marginal rate of substitution in such a case and in the case of goods related with goods. Thus, the shari'ah principle is that a good cannot be traded off with a bad; a bad cannot be traded off with a bad; and a good cannot be traded off with a good.
