I do know, that to get around Islamic rules, when loans are given in the Arab world, there is an “Acquisition Fee”...which can be built into payments on the loan. This, of course, is effectively interest.

Interest is evil, but it is also the fundamental bedrock upon which all capitalism is built. I don’t think that real progress could be made in a world with no interest.

Wouldn’t everyone just claim to be muslim for the deal, and bankrupt the bank?

Because if you then don't follow the dictates of the murder cult, they kill you for being an apostate.

So are they saying muslims don’t know how to properly manage a bank account?
