Islamic governance adds two things ubuntu does not have. The first is a reasoning methodology. The jurisprudential principle of maʾālāt — the requirement to trace long-term consequences and second-order effects before acting — places the burden of proof on those introducing change, not those who might be harmed. This is not a values statement. It is a procedural rule that restructures who must prove what before a decision is taken. In AI governance terms, it directly inverts the current global default, which treats harm as something communities must demonstrate after deployment rather than something developers must prevent before it.
