Abstract
Hoarding of vital goods is one of the most significant problems that human beings have faced throughout history, and in contemporary times, governments all over the world have been caught up in it and its sinister impacts. Based on this, the present study has investigated hoarding from the perspective of Islamic religions by using the library method, with an emphasis on Imami jurisprudence, and presents and analyzes the opinions of the jurists of these religions. Famous religious scholars have voted against hoarding and others have voted for hatred. In the juridical texts of all the schools of Islam, the jurists agree that hoarding is reprehensible, but they do not agree on its prohibition, and this is due to the difference in their understanding of the basics of hoarding. However, attention in the traditions that have been included in this context shows that the promise of sanctity seems stronger. In addition to the differences, the jurists of Islam have not agreed with each other in the goods subject to the title of hoarding. Therefore, this study has practical issues according to current conditions.
