You are oversimplifying it. The debate is not about whether or not Riba is Haram. Everyone knows and agrees that Riba is Haram. The debate is about which transactions fall in Riba.
Would love to see you on 'Sapience Institute' to speak to someone like Hamza Tzortiz or Suboor Ahmed or "Blogging Theology" to speak to Br Paul to chat to about economics.
this is the view i find most compelling: Interest incentivizes the creation of money without real economic activity resulting in more money chasing limited resources, and hence higher prices. So being part of such a transaction means contributing to the injustice in society where others suffer as a consequence. as muslims we are to make sure that our actions dont harm other human beings, who Allah calls His best creation.
And tools like these just proves ur point : Mortgage Backed securities(MBS) Collateral Debt obligation (CDOs) Repo Market Or Secondary Market Taking part in Options market by taking loan and list would never end😢
In light of your statement, does this mean that “cash back” from your credit card may in fact be haram in that I may be directly benefiting from another persons hardship who has to pay interest to that credit card company. In other words the Credit card company may be “robbing Peter to pay Paul” ?
26:43 you completely missed his point here. he's saying the western model is haram. loans as financing shouldn't exist. investment should be the form of financing not loans. and i agree with him.
I have watched that before. May Allah give jaza to our beloved Sheikh Yasir and guest and you as well. For ordinary people, finance is a very intrigued subject
Well if you don't understand what actually is riba and actually misunderstand the term how can you say you just accept that riba is actually haram when in actuality what you think riba actually is might be wrong.
I love how none of these scholars never get into the actual definition of riba and how that actually applies to a fiat currency. They are applying ayah’s in the Quran that came down at a time where people were dealing in gold, silver, barter etc, they didn’t have banks for money storage let alone a central bank with the power to inflate and deflate a currency, so back then the Riba was the rich making ppl double, triple their gold, barley etc. Fast forward to today, our “money” is literally just a paper IOU that the treasury borrows from the federal reserve, the federal reserve charges interest and this interest is paid by tax revenue (FY 2022 out of $4.8 trillion tax revenue, $387 Billion was paid to holders of T bills; i.e. federal reserve, the people who loaned the banknote IOU) so we are all paying whether or not you intend to or not, that’s the reality of our financial system in the US and the entire world save for a few countries. The money itself is riba. The scholars are erroneously likening paper fiat to gold and silver (which have intrinsic value & are immune to inflationary/deflationary cycles).
So, if we go by what you mention, are you saying let's do more Riba? Even if we stick by the idea of inflation and assume it's valid, this becomes more like gambling. You have no decisive information that the money will be less valuable 10 years down the road, you don't even know how much less/more it would be. The Shiekh is not missing the point, he is pointing out a very important aspect, which is the fundemental idea of loans. Does a pound of wheat compared to gold have the same value it as 100 years ago? So, there is some "inflation" going on here on some side.
I have heard varying views on Zakat on salary ie income on sale of your professional services. Some scholars equate it to zakah on sale of agriculture product. Others simply profess calculation of Zakah on cash and liquid holdings independent of how much you earned. Appreciate thoughts
Understanding how money is created is obviously important, however as Muslims we also need to remember what's the purpose of money. And money and transactions are nothing but means of ibadah. Unlike the non Muslims we trade and make money to basically invest in paradise
Good video and completely agree with you that there isn't a clear, coherent, present day answer to how Islamic Finance can tackle inflationary impact on currency. In fact if you calculate what a typical 25-year mortgage costs, check your mortgage offers and it says for every £1 you borrow you'll pay back say £1.69. On a £100,000 loan a borrower will repay £169,000. But with average 2.5% inflation per year, £100,000 will be equivalent to £185,000. So how is the borrower at fault here?
Being equivalent to £185,000 at the end doesn't mean it is worth £169,000 if spread out over the time period. You are discounting from the very end as opposed to each period in time you pay the instalment. For further understanding, research the principle of an annuity and how it is discounted.
I don't know much about economics and I could be wrong so just take this with a grain of salt: Initially it does look like the borrower is benefitting, and probably so, but the main issue is that the loan props up the housing market by a lot more than it should actually be, which is kind of monopolistic as the main beneficiary are the banks, making the wealth gap way higher. Pretty much the price we pay for houses nowadays are much higher which will take more time and effort to pay back and so that's the actual downside for your everyday borrower/citizen. But then again it's pretty tricky to pin down exactly what the right thing to do would be, when factoring incentives, would our community miss out/fall behind by not investing in housing, Pareto distribution/principal etc.
I mean you should let the market decide, but then again when your have the huge loans like mortgages over 30 years, you kinda don't feel the responsibility instantly/delayed for the future, and so when you have everyone getting mortgage loans on a macro scale at the same time, everyone ends up paying a premium on what the house should actually be worth as its being propped up by credit money, which in a way corrupts the free market
Someone needs to sit with a sheikh and explain quantitative easing and the dilution of the money supply. Ten million from 1970 is not the same as ten million today. It's lost substantial buying power due to the expansion of the money supply or money printing. An analogy would be if you borrowed gold dinars each containing 100g of gold in 640, and then in 680 you returned the same amount of dinars, but the gold content had decreased to 30 grams because the country diluted the gold in each dinar and issued new ones with a lower gold content.
sheikh understands. you don't. he basically said don't lend money to ppl who want to invest it. demand to be a partner in their business or don't lend it. and for those who ask for money out of need, lend small amounts out of charity for small amount of time and accept the inflation loss as an act of charity. or if u are miserly and stingy, and can't accept that loss, then don't lend that money. but don't ask for interest.
Jazakoum Allah ou kheir for these interesting videos. A video discussing the position of Islam on selling covered calls would be appreciated and of great help for many I am sure. Salam aalaykoum wa rahmatoullah.
I still have yet to come across a video on car leasing and php, where it clearly explains how it is halal regarding late payments fees...... And also the issue about defaulting..... If they are in the contract is it halal.... Can someone please direct me to a fatwa or just a good video explaining this
For cash back what about the source of the money being not 100% halal? Couldn’t that make cash back wrong to take? Because if we know most of Amex money is coming from interest, the cash back is supplemented by their interest income. Even not just from halal/Haram technicality, it just seems wrong to benefit from interest
Assuming you only payback the amount principal in USD after 1 year, couldn't that implies you are cheating the bank ? Since after one year the purchasing power of the principal depreciated due to inflation factor! Why would someone lend out his money at loss???
I am not a knowledgeable person but what do you think about "giving loan in the value of gold in money and when the borrower giving it back he should give the value of gold in money in that time".
Question on Mortgage loan If you don’t borrow from bank and carry on paying the rent. If you borrow from in long run house will be on your name so benefiting party is borrower ?
if your borrow money on riba your at war with allah and the prophet muhammad curse is on u!!.. if the prophet curses u.. then your prayers your hajj all that might not even get accepted.. your in big trouble .. and the quran always say you might not even be a believer at that stage lol.. and if u keep paying rent your paying sadaqa and allah will give u increase inshallah.. think differently not dunya minded..
Dr. Qudah equated lending to saving account. But there is a basic difference between the two. In case of lending, borrower approaches the lender and asks for a loan and the lender asks for an interest on that loan, whereas in case of a saving account, account holder just deposits money in the account and does not give it as a loan nor demand any interest. The bank offers a profit to the account holder at its own discretion and can change it whenever it wants. Account holder has no say in it. Let me ask a question. What if a lender does not demand any interest or profit on loan but the borrower himself offers to pay the lender something over and above the principal amount volantarily? Because this is exactly what is happening in the case of saving account.
this is you playing semantics. saying riba is business. do you think banks don't advertise? do you think they don't have brand names and buildings on high street enticing you in? secondly. the banks sign a contract with you when you deposit money, confirming they will give u interest. so it isn't optional for them. if u can find a savings account where the bank doesn't have to pay you any money, would you even call it a savings account? would you even then deposit your money in that account? I think not. you are just playing semantics here. be honest with yourself. it is riba. open an Islamic bank account and save your money in that. and if you need a western bank account, leave only the minimum you need in that.
If rent-seeking on your money itself is exploitative without any productive economic or social activity then shouldn't buying houses with that same money and renting those out be in the same category as Riba?
If rent seeking is the problem in interest, then by that logic is renting houses also haram since the landlord hasn't done anything productive (I am excluding developers in this case)?
What if someone wants to loan money from me and i go buy gold worth that money then give the person the gold? its seems like a loophole where your money stays around the same
I have an objection to the cash back fatwa ! AMEX encourages you to use card instead of paying cash thus they can get commission from the seller! When you pay with credit card you help bank to take 3% from the seller without any justification!!!???? If they claim that they are charging against a service, then it should be a fixed amount not proportional to the price of good, because it is the same service
@AbirHossain-mv6rp how do you reconcile this with the fact that Mufti Faraz Adam and even IFG say that finance through providers like Pfida, Gatehouse bank, Strideup, Wayhome are permissible?
@ifg - would love to see more discussions of fiat currency and how that might effect traditional islamic thought around what represents riba, and what is 'simple interest' to account for inflation. Leaving the abstract notion of "the time value of money aside", if you buy that the "value" of money globally is mostly a function of the us federal reserve, then would much interest that exists in bank accounts not really be riba, but simply an adjusted currency valuation based on fed lending rates? This is really a strawman hypothesis of what another theory of riba could be - I'm not an expert, but hoping an expert could make this strawman into a more robust strawman, and then debunk the theory. Wassallam!
How is car financing a rental agreement? It comes with interest that fluctuates with market and could cost you paying a lot more than car's price that you bought it for.. how is it different from home mortgage loan? Are we playing with words again
Salam. I would argue that he best way to look at any agreement should always be three-fold. You cannot compare only the results ... you need to look, as well, into the starting point and the process of obtention (the middle part in the story of the cow). Otherwise, a piece of meat halal or non halal looks alike, if you limit your investigation to the results. The second point I would argue is that banks see the cost opportunity of the money they hold and wish to sell a "buying power" to the "borrower" with a margin over time (not rent). This use of money to buy itself and create money from 'itself' is like a non-binary approach for pro-creation. It is FALSE. that is also why sales is fine and Riba is not. The third point is that the structure of the word RIBAA; first letter is RI meaning: seeing R with some weakness or incapacitation I; and the second and third letter are BAA meaning: something in itself BA that grows upwards AA. You see something growing but it is not TRUE. Moreover if you change the standards by which you are measuring (inflation is closer to defrauding the balance weights). The fundamental for value creation is as follow: Gold underground or any storage doesn't transform on its own, it is sleeping. Life underground or aboveground can transform and create (The LIVING is a name of ALLAH). those are the TWO ingredients for value creation and are required for proper valuation. Either you lend money or you enter an agreement with someone (biologically alive) that can transform or transport a stored value (called the economic activity for adding value), Making it more valuable. You always look at it from its starting point the Lender or the money holder. I would argue that Inflation with fiat currency is much more a problem when the central bank is privately owned versus public establishment. That can be linked to why the idea of decentralized ledger in the form of tokens rather then assets or piece of software prowess (like bitcoin) is very much in the public interest. bi tawfeek min Allah
What about the fact that when you have money in an account that pays 0% interest, and another account that pays 3% interest. The relationship is the same. Sheikh made arguement that bank is taking the risk with your money they can gain or lose the money but they pay you your 3% reguardless. The bank does the exact same thing with your money if the acount pays 0%. The bank will still invrest in stock market, give that money to people for personal loads/buisiness loans/mortgages. That arguement would still make the 0% account haram becasue they are taking risk with your money and you're not sharing risk with them. In reality risk is hedged so much that there is no risk to the bank.
Overdraft fee could be for the paperwork so may not be Ribba. Cashback is not free money from the bank. Its an incentive to buy your data or get you hooked on using their system ie customer acquisition cost. This sheikh is not clear on his convepts and is an agent of a mortgage company called Guidance and therefore his opinions are biased.
You cannot have a islamic system which works with one that is haram, their will always be those who look for loop holes but they just fool themselves. Alot of muslims do it and say its only for one house, the landlord is using my rent to pay the mortgage, im in non muslim lands so its alright.... dont fool yourselves.
He's being a hypocrite on Cashback: If you look closely. What is the motive behind cashback? Is to spend $100 so you get 5%. What will be the consequence? people tall into the trap is spending feed money and end up paying interest.
I am kind of disagree with what you say that in the beginning of a video, money is printed and then lent out. I disagree with you on this matter. I believe that money is printed and lend out only if a borrower is found for example in the case of quantitative easing, the government was a borrower as soon as the government made a promise of repayment and had a contractual agreement with the finance organisations - only at that point the money is printed out because the money had a promise of repayment similar thing to a bank loan and similar thing to a house purchase. As soon as a borrower is identified and confirmed and the contract side so at that point, the money is printed out because as there is a promise of repayment thus there is low risk. It's just moving the process the other around from what you said. Additionally, interest is the reason for inflation is purely because of interest bearing lending in the modern society inflation would not happen If interested not exist and people would not be borrowing so much and prices would not rise due to increased purchasing. Thus the conclusion in my view is that we the borrowers mainly cause inflation.
@@mahirabdulahi4131 I think he is trying to say that is because we should not have the interest in the first place. Borrow and lend as much as you want but without the interest
Islam means submission, Allah says riba is haram, therefore, it's haram, period.
You are oversimplifying it. The debate is not about whether or not Riba is Haram. Everyone knows and agrees that Riba is Haram. The debate is about which transactions fall in Riba.

BarakAllahu feekum. MashaAllah, this was super educational for me.

ALLĀH Forbidden ribah/ interest...as Muslims , we submit to the Commands, without justifications/ understanding/ flip-flops !!!!
Well if you don't understand what actually is riba and actually misunderstand the term how can you say you just accept that riba is actually haram when in actuality what you think riba actually is might be wrong.

As for these alternative system/credit union etc, it's unrealistic let's be honest
Being equivalent to £185,000 at the end doesn't mean it is worth £169,000 if spread out over the time period. You are discounting from the very end as opposed to each period in time you pay the instalment.

If rent-seeking on your money itself is exploitative without any productive economic or social activity then shouldn't buying houses with that same money and renting those out be in the same category as Riba?

didn't uk recently allow halal student financing?
If rent seeking is the problem in interest, then by that logic is renting houses also haram since the landlord hasn't done anything productive (I am excluding developers in this case)?

I would argue that he best way to look at any agreement should always be three-fold. You cannot compare only the results ... you need to look, as well, into the starting point and the process of obtention (the middle part in the story of the cow). Otherwise, a piece of meat halal or non halal looks alike, if you limit your investigation to the results.

You cannot have a islamic system which works with one that is haram, their will always be those who look for loop holes but they just fool themselves. Alot of muslims do it and say its only for one house, the landlord is using my rent to pay the mortgage, im in non muslim lands so its alright.... dont fool yourselves.
Don’t worry about them, the angels will drag them on their face to face a judgement that they won’t like.
that money creation of money is not real. all they really have to do is change the digits on a computer
He's being a hypocrite on Cashback: If you look closely. What is the motive behind cashback? Is to spend
$100 so you get 5%. What will be the consequence? people tall into the trap is spending feed money and end up paying interest.
I am kind of disagree with what you say that in the beginning of a video, money is printed and then lent out. I disagree with you on this matter. I believe that money is printed and lend out only if a borrower is found for example in the case of quantitative easing, the government was a borrower as soon as the government made a promise of repayment and had a contractual agreement with the finance organisations - only at that point the money is printed out because the money had a promise of repayment similar thing to a bank loan and similar thing to a house purchase. As soon as a borrower is identified and confirmed and the contract side so at that point, the money is printed out because as there is a promise of repayment thus there is low risk. It's just moving the process the other around from what you said.
Additionally, interest is the reason for inflation is purely because of interest bearing lending in the modern society inflation would not happen If interested not exist and people would not be borrowing so much and prices would not rise due to increased purchasing. Thus the conclusion in my view is that we the borrowers mainly cause inflation.
We the borrowers borrow in interest so your argument is null
@@mahirabdulahi4131 I think he is trying to say that is because we should not have the interest in the first place. Borrow and lend as much as you want but without the interest
