Re: Allama Iqbal and the Reconstruction of Islamic Thought
No, capitalism is not based on interest. This is the kind of stuff I am talking about. The muslim world has been fed this crap for over a millenia now. Capitalsim is haram because it is based on interst which is RIBA which is haram Q.E.D. How can an instrument for a trnsaction be haraam, it is manner and intent which should be haram, if at all. Now God is declaring financial instuments illegal
