Shafique reading Kung is the easiest option to conclude that Allah loves disbelievers..
But let's challenge Eh's intelligence..

Eh gives us one simple answer as to why Allah is Rahman to disbelievers? It has a very basic answer...

(This is my reasoning for advocating no interest rates but a tax on unused capital - which will encourage investments and profit sharing rather than mortgages/loans/bonds paying interest) The abundance of capital in the markets, by obligation more or less, will also lead to inflation in my opinion....

Eh when you are giving answers or asking questions, why do you live your logic and common senses out of the business. You don't always have to disagree you know.. How many earthquake machines do you think mankind will built that will shake not only few houses but so many villages, cities or infact a...

Actually, Craig already addressed the 'al-rahman' smoke-and-mirrors excuse. He says that Allah's mercy really only cashes out to those who love him. What a silly quote by Craig.. Did you ever hear if God asked anyone' opinion before he gave them life on earth? Did you ever hear anyone before they w...

Hey, you should tell that to Moses - who not only killed an Egyptian but murdered apostates according to the Koran. Remember he was a servant of God, not only an ordinary servant but a guided prophet who talked directly with God.. Eh,will you love God when your time comes to departure no matter wha...

Berrin, care to quote a single verse in the Koran where allah says he loves sinners/disbelievers? Every chapter in quran starts with "Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim" wheather God talks about disbelievers or believers. http://wahiduddin.net/words/bismillah.htm I have another facinating quest...

Liquidity is good, but too much of it is merely inflationary. Very unproductive. All the countries of the world have got to do is abolish interest rates and usuary from world economics. Only then liquidity will find its way for investments and become productive rather than lying around idle on inte...

The first analogy shows that the interest systems of the banks only help the richest to get richer even faster, without any “effort” or without the risk of making "more money" is put at risk. - If interest earning at banks is guaranteed then it leads people to rip off / steal money by util...

Most of us know the story of Prophet Ibrahim's (Abraham) sacrifice and we say that it was a test by Allah (ta'ala). But do we really understand what Ibrahim went through? Do we appreciate what it was like to be Ibrahim? Can we grasp in thought what happened? Why is it that we regard Ibrahim as the ...

The story of Ishmael can be summarized thus: Prophet Abraham was married to Lady Sarah and he had no child until he was very old. Then his wife Sarah told him to marry her handmaiden, Hagar. Hagar bore him a son, when he was eighty six years old. This son was called Ishmael. We read in Genesis 17 o...

The 'shariah loans' are indeed just loans with interest dressed up - so they aren't really shariah compliant, as they are indeed charging interest but in a round about way.

Shafique Is there any bank in ME which pays real returns on savings rather than dressed interests?

Robby, did you know that every single muslim believer is a potential Hayek..,without the extra need for consultancy or that expertise provided on charges.. :wink: :) http://adnan-globalissues.blogspot.com/2008/05/islam-and-taxation.html http://www.mustaqim.co.uk/usury.htm http://www.khilafah.com/ima...

Spread the word of economic freedom!

I am not a philosopher but I think you keep living on dreams that are unattainable. In reality there is no such thing as economic freedom. For that to happen you should never receive or give service/goods to live on.
Can you do that?

But fraud and abuse is the natural outcome of "greed" another words the essence of "wild capitalism" where the rich gets richer by exploiting the needy and resources that belongs to everyone regardless of their buying power..Religious regulations are there for protection of human...

You wouldn't have a tv in every house if it wasn't for a rich fella who had plenty of money left for an entrepreneur to pursue his need to find a solution to a problem! Well there is nothing wrong with this but something went wrong when the rich fella was meant to be the solution to all problems th...

Well Robby looks like you're never gonna be blessed on the short run.... Apparently coprofascism is the bread and butter of some states staying strong against Islamofascism! :D :wink: Reconciling Fascism with Reality by Mr. Conservatard Today, I read the following article on information clearing hou...

God, do I loath religious nonsense in serious stuff. Can't help it, but it wrecks my appetite to discuss further.

Good Lord you do have a God...
What nuisance you're talking about eh...

Fascism (National Socialism) is SOCIAL state, where capital and labour collaborate inside national state under supervision of government. Well that’s how it initially had to be when there was a need to encourage investment to meet the needs of booming society. However this boom also led to massive ...

How do you compare this Fascists believe that a nation is an organic community that requires strong leadership, collective identity, and the will and ability to commit violence and wage war in order to keep the nation strong.They identify violence and war as actions that create national regeneration...

TJ, I have a lawyer friend who is divorced with a male child of 14 years old. And says that she sees tendencies in him to be a great womanizer as already quite a few women (children ladies) hanging around him unavoidable.. (This boy is flamboyant, intelligent, reads a lot hence a mind of his own, in...

So, if we (somehow) could return to a gold standard, where money is 100% backed by gold, then you can't have a boom bust scenario as volatile as we had in 1929 or in 2008. What do you think will change if paper money takes the value of Gold? The biggest problem of the capitalist system is the finan...

Unfortunately, the only way to end society's tolerance for wife beating in the Muslim world is to denounce the passages which a) allow wives to be abused and b) the passages which treat women as inferiors (women are dirty, women are of lesser intelligence and the testimony of one man is equal to tw...

If you go onto a gold standard, you withold from government the possibility of creating inflation. O yeah,In regards to Inflation fluctuations in the amount of gold that is mined could cause inflation, if there is an increase, or deflation if there is a decrease. Derivitives should be regulated on ...

I still believe that the Quranic teachings have something to do with the fact that the majority of Egyptian women find it acceptable for men to beat their wives. These women probably consider that such beatings as having been ordained or sanctioned by Allah (as decreed in the Quran). As such, they ...

Many of the core issues have just not been addressed. Whilst the goals are well documented - paying so and so over period X, I have grave concerns over the raising of capital to fund the proposal - Issuing bonds to pay back the bankers that you owe money too !!!??? Put another way - thats like bein...

I find many of your posts, and of others, very offensive

Is this another case of your "go figure" thingy....

Freedom means different things to different groups of people.

Sure abuse means different thing to different groups of people..
