Also the gambling incuded in the list ( Innal khamru wal maisiru wal ansaabu wal azlaamu , rijsum min AMALIS SHITAANU, FAJTANIBOOHU...). Magic too is illegal Old & New Testaments new testaments don't have such GOOD verses at all. Did you know ? Should not such evil crreatiing things be abolished ? Interest of money exploites poor indiscriminately by money lenders. It must not be equated with inflation as both are totally different things. Deserting a family of poor is INHUMAN. If there is an inflation, that is the EVIL of economic system, NOT a STANDARD PARAMETER of economy. Generally, stock brokers or economists in general, DELIBERSATELY keep inflation ARTIFICIALLY even if that must be zero. That is treachery, NOT principled stand & a standard procedure of economic system. A good economist must be highly principled, God fearing & greatly HUMANETARIAN too. Only amassing money by businessman is NO AT ALL good economic set up. Is deserting people by exploitation of money lending or any other means NOT an evil ? DOES NOT a poor man have right to survive with honour ?

I'm sorry, explain why interest on money is an evil thing? This is how the economy works, and at an individual level it's how people gain savings to live by. And if you think it's evil when the banks do it, if they didn't charge interest there'd be no incentive for them to give loans out at all, so no-one would ever be able to get a loan when they need one. Seriously, this is simply stupid. Handsome Leader: So please tell me where the money to fund this loan would come from? And, indeed, in this utopia where everyone helps everyone, where's the need for money whatsoever? And you still haven't answered why it's bad for people to get interest on their savings. It's still stupid to claim that interest on money is a bad thing.

Definitely, the world would be a far better place to live in if these things get abolished, and the loan should be given to help a needy without drawn a bigger financial advantage out of his need. that's why it is prohibited to taking interest on money in ISLAM. this way people would encouraged to help the needy and the needy will be encouraged to taking help. we should not make this pure help, a chance of business.

It's already known that alcohol, gambling is wrong etc. "Interest on money...etc, all evils? " what do you mean? Can you expand a little on the interest on money part. The Bible came before the Quran and even in the Bible we see that a fair interest rate is expected to be received on borrowed money if you read Proverbs 28:8; Matthew 25:27. In ancient Israel the Law did prohibit charging interest on one category of loans - those made to the poor reading Leviticus 25:35-38. Usury or loaning money at interest is strictly forbidden by the Bible.

The islamic religion and Paradise was invented by Mohammed to bribe the Arabs in committing hideous crimes by promising them materialistic things which they couldn't obtain in the harsh desert. Not even Hitler of Stalin could have thought of such a full proof plan to indoctrinate their soldiers. The paradise contains six important items: ***** Beautiful virgins ***** Young boys ***** Water ***** Wine ***** Fruits and wealth But the most appealing is "perpetual " virgins Mohammed knew that sex would sell very well among the group of his lecherous followers who were motivated to fight battles by the promise of sex slave and booty. By constantly emphasizing to his followers that they would get untouched virgins in Paradise, Mohammed is clearly expressing his "high " opinion of the institution of marriage and his fairness to women. Once the followers go to heaven, they can conveniently ditch their wives for the fresher and more pleasurable sexual encounters with 'Houris' (beautiful virgins). Not only that, the poor wives who gave up their virginity for the pleasure of their husbands do not get even one Male Sex Bomb. But wait, Allah is all merciful! He gives the wives the rare honour of watching their husbands deflower those 72 hours (virgins) and 28 young prepubescent boys. It makes you switch religions ha!
