| description |
In this paper, the decision-making character of shura, the consultative

defined variables that help to formulate the social choice, the social welfare
function, and the institutional decision-making problems in an Islamic politicoeconomic
order.

Shari’ah (Islamic law) to various socioeconomic problems ...
