Re: Quranic Perspective on Usury
^ Islam's message is not universal for all times. the universal message which is there in all religions is to be a good person and not cheat another...not to take advantage of another. When religions go above and beyond simple and timeless concepts like these they are full of holes...like Islam equating Interest with RIBA. This equation makes Islam only relevant for the 7th century when dealing with finance and economics.
If the esteemed prophet would have known about high yield bonds maybe he would have not equated RIBA with interest. I still think that he meant usury but mullahs like yourself have not understood. I am here to teach you the difference.
