It is widely suggested in the paradigm of capitalism that making the rich richer makes the rest of society richer as well, arguing therein that the very prerequisite to having a society with evenly distributed wealth is to be able to generate it beforehand. There is no denying, however, that, it is the rich who can strive on the investment front and create job opportunities. As such, it is argued that the prevalence of the wealthy is vital both for discovering market opportunities and for making the most out of these opportunities. In the long run, the poor can only get rich if their efforts make the rich richer than they already are. In the hypothetical pie of wealth, when a bigger slice of the pie is dedicated to the rich, the share of others may seem to decrease in the short term, but in the long run, the absolute volume of the poor will increase because the pie itself would have grown in size. Pro-capitalism scholars often argue that inequality of income tends to decrease in the advanced stages of the development of capitalism, getting stabilized at a sustained, and oftentimes highly acceptable, level. Achieving ubiquitous levels of growth, therefore, is only a matter of patience and sustained efforts. The purpose of the current study is to prove this intellectual basis, both theoretically and empirically. That is, capitalism has never been, or for that matter, will ever be, able to alleviate the complications of the poor. One can even argue that the opposite has even made more of a case. In addition, the resulting significant economic instability and unemployment have arguably piled more misery on the poor, in turn signifying that efficiency and justice have remained highly elusive within the capitalist paradigm. Through an essential understanding of human nature, the Holy Qur'an states that most people are inherently not welcoming of relinquishing their wealth to others, even their families, let alone their communities. That is, according to the Quran, humans like to accumulate and go over the figures: “…who amasses wealth and keeps an account of it.” (Hamzah, 2).
