AS NORMAL AS TEH TARIK - A Conversation in a School Alumni
Top Fed Official: Fed Will “Keep At This” Until Your Savings Accounts Are Drained
Yes, Pak Ya the madness of an interest and riba based economy that we have taken as normal as teh tarik. We need to look at things from the Quranic and Sunnah view without tampering it with daily reality which is a total affront to the Quran and Sunnah. When Allah SWT declares war on riba and interest why do we play down these warnings from our Creator as kunu proclamations unbecoming of us modern westernised Muslims.
A wrong is a wrong ; a sin is a sin whichever way we look at it. Sure we have to deal with it on a daily basis. But this is only excusable when we harbour a massive hatred for it and is working 24/7 to reform it. But when such does not exist in our daily life; when we have a govt blissfully ignorant of its transgression against God’s will; and we have a central bank who seems to be the local disciple to challenge God’s command then we know we are living in a dangerous world. A world that endangers our aqidah; a world who looks with derision at those who challenge the fasiqun status quo. We are capable of change; but when we don’t even have hatred of the fasad in our hearts……….
We are going to face a general election very soon. Do we have a selection that can manage the welfare of the umat not only in this world but also in the akhirat. Whoever we elect we will have a kerajaan that is at War with Allah and His Rasul.
The current western system that the whole world adopts has clear set defaults to keep the rich, and richer. The poor is an irrelevant who is looked upon as a cause of inflation when they ask for a fair return for their sweat. That is why when America needs money to repair and replace their deteriorating infrastructure the Federal Reserve responds by buying bonds from rich people. Drenched in a 100 year fraud and miseducation legitimised by another 100 years of MisEconomics – this is their answer. They call it Quantitative Easing.
It never occurs to them to create money and pass it for infrastructure as one of their previous Presidents, President Jackson did. When they need to get the Economy going through increased Consumption like after an economy shrunk by a Covid pandemic. It never occurs to them to just create money and put it in the pockets of poor people to recover the two years of zero spending. Instead, they lower interest rates to borrowing companies who in theory will rush to the banks to borrow, create new projects, employ workers who then get wages in their pockets to spend. This is a time lag of probably two years by which time the starving populace may have died.
But we don’t challenge these beliefs Pak Ya because we are besotted with the West. They know everything and we brown people can never be as clever as them, We have the Quran and the Sunnah but we believed the West who told us the Quran and Sunnah are irrelevant to our lives. And we again optimistically believe that these incoming group of leaders have the magic wand to solve all our problems without having to go through the thinking process above. We are forever the ever-obedient Brown Sahib.
