In Al Quran verses also explain about justice concept, either justice in distribution matters, consumption or others. In Economics, justice also has to establish that including eliminating inequality in income. The principle of justice in Islamic economic system is contrary to the capitalist concept which develops the trickle-down effect principle, besides the characteristic of the capitalist economy is private ownership. Whereas in Islam the principles of justice enforcement are ukhuwah (brotherhood), mahabbah (mutual love), takaful (help each other) and ta'awun (mutual help).
