Determinants of the price elasticity of demand:
1) Is there an available substitute?: Goods with close substitutes have more elastic demand.
2) Is it a luxury or necessity?: Necessities have inelastic demand, luxuries have elastic demand.
3) Weight of the good's cost in the consumers' budget: Goods that represent a relatively small portion of our total budget tend to have inelastic demand.
4) Time period: Price elasticity of demand is higher in the long run because substitute availability increases in the long run.

Musa Furber'in sorusu
"Discussion question for fiqh nerds:
Maxim 1: "الضَّرُورِيَّاتُ تُبِيحُ الْمَحْظُورَاتِ"
Maxim 2: "الرُّخَصُ لَا تُنَاطُ بِالْمَعَاصِي"
Apply these two maxims to the following scenario:
Ahmed orders pork dumplings & wine.
A dumpling gets lodged in his throat.
Nothing else is
Necessity is the mother of invention .It's only when you are at the end of the tether, you figure out a way to get out of the mess...

foreign policy making process
In other words, official public discourse created the conditions for a ''torture-sustaining reality'' in the US by using language that dehumanized suspected and made the public -despite minority opposition- willing to accept the necessity to abuse them. Without assessing the power of this discourse, it is hard to explain how the US could adopt a set of practices so at odds with its moral values.

By the time al-Māwardī was writing the caliphate had ceased to exercise effective political power. The issue was no longer the substitution of a just for an unjust caliph. There was no question of the caliph re-imposing shar‘ī government: he did not dispose of the necessary power to do so. The problem with which al-Māwardī wrestled was how to bring the holders of power within the general framework of Islamic law. It was an intractable problem, but if the ideal of Islamic government was to be maintained and Islamic institutions were to be preserved, it demanded a solution. Accordingly,al-Māwardī, constrained by necessity and expediency, contrived new ways to bring existing conditions within the framework of the law while, in fact, disregarding the law. He recognised the problem and met it with decision. That he wrote with a full sense of responsibility cannot be denied, but whether the solution he proposed was wise or conducive to the wellbeing of the Muslim community in the long term, is a more doubtful matter. From now on the political obligation of the caliph as the executor of the sharī‘a was not only in practice, but also in theory, limited by the possibility of fulfilment.
