Can You Explain Islamic Stand On Public Participation In Physical Planning?

Technically speaking Islam does not present people with guidelines or divine rules for application in public management systems and politics. Islam simply provides the value system and establishes self-accountability parameters for the believers that are supposed to be mandatory in establishing governments. For purely semantic reasons and for established precedents Muslims look towards the governance criterion set by the period of the four great Caliphs that arose after the demise of the prophet. For example, Umar Farooq had established a policing system, a clearly defined social welfare system which had been until then unheard of in the world. Not just theoretically, but practically as well people could take their leaders to task for their decisions and actions and hold them accountable as it was the common practice those days.
