Keeping the production means:<br />
Craftsmen and employees must protect the tools of working and the productive means. The<br />
employees should never neglect them because they are their trusts. Damages of the production<br />
devices cause economical loss and injure employers. Development of wealth resources:<br />
Craftsmen and employees should work sincerely and faithfully for developing and preserving the<br />
sources of wealth since the economic life relies upon them. It is impossible for any nation to<br />
develop economically unless workers possess a general cognizance of the necessity of conserving<br />
and maturing the nation’s resources of wealth.<br />
Professional specialization:<br />
Professional specialization helps in the national development, productive increase, and<br />
economical prosperity. Governments are responsible for encouraging these goals by sending the<br />
seekers of specialization to institutions inside and outside the country. They are also responsible<br />
for meeting the needs of these people. This is surely the most important social responsibility.<br />
Activity and firmness:<br />
The Islamic education in work cares for distributing the spirits of activity and firmness in the<br />
employees’ minds. It also cares for warning against laziness and sloth, since these matters<br />

and laziness. They are the key to every vile. The tedious cannot fulfill any duty. The lazy cannot<br />
keep any pledge.”[1] Imam Musa (a) said, “Beware of tedium and laziness. They block the shares<br />
of this world and the <strong>Here</strong>after.”[2]<br />
Islam abhors laziness, forbids unemployment, and censures the unemployed because it leads to<br />
poverty, misery, and neediness. Muslims in the early ages<br />
[1] Refer to Men La Yahduruhul Faqih.<br />
[2] Refer to the lifetime of Imam Musa bin Jafar.<br />
disgusted long rest and stillness. They came to working fastidiously. Imam as‐Sadiq (a) exposed<br />
the deeds of those <strong>com</strong>panions before his adherents. He said, “Do not be lazy in seeking earnings.<br />
Our forefathers used to hasten in seeking their livings.”[1]<br />
Proudly, Islam calls to diligence, activity, and dispatching to working fields so that the life of luxury<br />
and amenity will prevail. In our ‘Labor and rights of workers in Islam’, we have referred<br />
