What the Qur’an DECLARES (2:275): What the Qur’an DECLARES (2:275): Those who eat Ribâ (usury) will not stand (on the Day of

Resurrection)

except like the standing of a person beaten by Shaitân (Satan)

leading him to insanity.

That is because they say: "Trading is only like Ribâ (usury),"

whereas Allâh has permitted trading and forbidden Ribâ.

So whosoever receives an admonition from his Lord & stops eating Ribâ (usury) shall not be punished for the past; his case is for Allâh (to judge); but whoever returns (to Ribâ), such are the dwellers of the Fire – they will abide therein

forever.

Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 276:Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 276:

Allâh will destroy Ribâ (usury)

and will give increase for Sadaqât (deeds of charity, alms, etc.)

And Allâh likes not the disbelievers, sinners.

RIBA will be DESTROYED !!!!!!

Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 277:Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 277:

1. Truly those who believe, 2. and do deeds of righteousness, 3. and perform As-Salât, 4. and give Zakât,

they will have their reward with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.

Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 278:Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 278:

O you who believe!

Be afraid of Allâh and give up what remains (due to you) from Ribâ (from now onward),

if you are (really) believers.

MUST give

up riba!

Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 279:Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 279:

And if you do not do it,

then take a notice of war from Allâh and His Messenger;

but if you repent, you shall have your capital sums. Deal not unjustly (by asking more than your capital sums),

and you shall not be dealt with unjustly (by receiving less than your capital sums).

Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 280:Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 280:

And if the debtor is in straitened circumstances,

then (let there be) postponement to (the time of) ease;

and that ye remit the debt as almsgiving would be better for you if ye did but know.

Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 281:Soorah Al-Baqarah Ayah # 281:

And be afraid of the Day when you shall be brought back to Allâh.

Then every person shall be paid what he earned, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly.

Ahadeeth on RIBA:Ahadeeth on RIBA:Jabir (r) narrates that the prophet (s) cursed the receiver

and the payer of riba, the one who records it and the 2 witnesses to the transaction and said: “They are all alike” (Tirmidhi)

Abu Hurairah (r) narrates that the prophet (s) said: On the night of Ascension I came upon people whose

stomachs were like houses with snakes visible from the outside. I asked Gibril who they were. He replied that they were people who had received riba.” (Musnad Ahmed)

Abu Hurairah (r) narrates that the prophet (s) said: There will certainly come a time for humanity when

everyone will take riba and if he does not do so, its dust will reach him (Abu Dawoud)

Loan taken = 5,000

Thus, total money supply 5,000

How will they return 5,500!

The Riba amount 500 – EXTRA does NOT exist

RIBA impossible to return ->ZULM=HARAM

Every Haram has its price !

In order to achieve the impossible, the whole society will be affected negatively!

AID should be forgiven !

To help us, Uncle Yahoodi gave us 5000. So we should return 5000!

Recent history of bankingRecent history of bankingJews, were jewelers & goldsmiths

People would keep their valuable, in their vault, in return for service charge and a promissory note.

It was noticed that only 1 in 20 people returned for their valuable. 95% did not return!

Their promissory note was been circulated in the whole town, because of the ease of use.

They began to print NOTES!They began to print NOTES!

If they had gold worth € 100, they could easily print and distribute € 2000 worth!

They gave loans

They bought real assets: property, building, farms, horses, gold mines!

They began to keep mini armies!

In the town they became Lords!

At the national levelAt the national level

They gave their allegiance to the king of the area.

Promised to finance the “war”

In return only they would be allowed to legally print money in the country.

Whenever the king needed money, they would freely give, in return for assets of the kingdom. New kings became slaves in their hands!

Napolean Bonaparte:The Jews provide troops for my campaign in Poland, but they ought to reimburse me…They are a state within the state. The Jews are master robbers of the modern age; they are the carrion birds of humanity …(Speeches before the Council of State May 7th, 1806, Book: “Antizion”

by William Grimstard)

Winston Churchill, UK Prime Minister:

This movement among the Jews in not new. This worldwide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilization and for the predominance of Jews is even more astounding. The same evil prominence was obtained in the brief period of terror …(Illustrated Sunday Herald, London, February

8, 1920)

Henry Ford, 20th Century U$ Tycoon:

Get hold of 50 of the wealthiest Jewish financiers, the men who are interested in making wars for their own profit. Control them, and you will put an end to it all.(Cleveland News, September 20, 1923)

The Prophet (p) said: “Even if riba is much, it will end up being a

small amount.” (Reported by al-Haakim (in Mustradak), # 2/37; see also

Saheeh al-Jaami’, # 3542).

Ethics & moralityEthics & moralityIt has been narrated in a hadith of the Prophet (s): Verily, I have been sent to perfect morals.

He (p) was asked: "What is the religion?" He (p) replied: "The religion is morality."

When asked, "What is woe (or affliction)?" He replied, "Real affliction is lack of morality."

Nothing that will be weighed on the Day of Judgement will weigh heavier than moral action. [Abu Da’ud and Tirmidhi]

The Prophet (s) said:Verily truth will lead to goodness and goodness will lead to

heaven. A person who develops a habit of honesty will be accepted by Allah as an honest person. But lying leads to evil, and evil leads to the Hellfire. A person who lies until dishonesty becomes habitual will be written off by Allah as a liar.

Allāh does the needful for him; and whoever removes the distress of a Muslim, Allāh removes from him a distress out of the

distresses of the day of resurrection; and whoever covers (the fault of) a Muslim,

Allāh will cover his sins on the day of resurrection."

"Do not hate one another and do not be jealous of one another and do not boycott one another, and be servants of Allāh (as) brethren;

and it is not lawful for a Muslim that he should sever his relations with his brother for more than three days."
