Towards the concept of divine justice income: an imaginary dialogue

Abstract

This paper is an imaginary dialogue between two accountants who have different educational background environments. The first accountant is from secular education environment (secular accountant: Asek) and the second accountant comes from pesantren education environment (sharia accountant: Asyah). Both of them discuss about the concept of income to initiate a concept which is called Divine Justice Income. The concept of Divine Justice Income consists of three pillars, namely: parity pillar (rukun paritas), kinship pillar (rukun kewargaan), and social welfare pillar (rukun pembuktian). All pillars are illustrated just like the layer of earth. This paper employs an imaginary dialogue as the method which is categorized as postmodern paradigm. This is a unique way to provide insight for the development of sharia accounting.
