THE
GRAND DESIGN
There is a grand design that links international politics, international
monetary economics and religion with today’s fraudulent monetary system. Let us explain. Every Jewish child knows
about, and believes in, a divine promise communicated to the Israelite people in
which Allah Most High promised that history would end with one man, who would
be a Prophet and the Messiah, ruling the whole world from the throne of David (‘alaihi al-Salam) in Holy Jerusalem
with eternal rule. Jews concluded there-from that history would end with Pax
Judaica (a Judeo-world-order), and with Jerusalem once more at the center of
the world as it was at the time of Solomon (‘alaihi
al-Salam). They believed that Pax
Judaica would validate the Jewish claim to truth, while invalidating all other
such claims.
It is quite remarkable that Muslims and Christians both share with
Jews the belief that the historical process would culminate with the Messiah
ruling the world with justice from Holy Jerusalem. However, unlike Jews,
Muslims and Christians both believe that Jesus, the son of the Virgin Mary, was
the divinely promised Messiah. They also both believe that he was raised into
the heavens at the time of the attempt to crucify him, and that he would return
to rule the world from Jerusalem exactly as divinely prophesied.
The Qur’an explained the phenomenon of his return by disclosing
that Jesus was not crucified but, rather, that Allah Most High caused it to
appear as such:
“That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of
Mary, the Apostle of Allah"; — but
they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them,
and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge,
but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not. Nay, Allah
raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.
(Qur’an, al-Nisa, 4:157-158)
Christians have rejected that declaration of the Qur’an, and persist
in their belief that Jesus was crucified.
Jews, on the other hand, reject Jesus as the Messiah, and await
another Messiah who would liberate the Holy Land for Jews, bring them back to
the Holy Land to reclaim it as their own, restore the Holy State of Israel in
the Holy Land (i.e., the Holy Israel that was created by the Prophets David and
Solomon), and then cause that Israel to become the ruling state in the world.
That Messiah would then rule the world from Holy Jerusalem with Pax Judaica and
bring back the Jewish golden age.
There is compelling evidence that continues to mysteriously unfold
in the world that appears to validate the Jewish claim to truth. After all, the
‘liberation’ of the Holy Land took place in 1917. Then the world witnessed the
subsequent return of the Jews to the Holy Land to reclaim it as their own some
2000 years after they were expelled from it by divine decree. The establishment
of the present (imposter) State of Israel then followed in 1948, and
subsequently growth of Israel to super-power status in the world became
evident. Along the way the Judeo-Christian alliance that brought modern western
civilization into being has made steady progress towards the establishment of a
world government. It now appears to be only a matter of time before Israel
replaces USA as the ruling state in the world, and a ruler of Israel makes his
appearance as the head of a world government based in Jerusalem, and he makes
the momentous claim that he is the Messiah!
Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu ‘alaihi wa
sallam) informed the world that
Allah Most High, who had pre-knowledge of all events, had responded to the
Jewish rejection of the true Messiah by creating a false Messiah. He disclosed
that Allah Most High would release that evil being into the world in a dimension
of time other than our own (see chapter two of ‘Surah
al-Kahf and the Modern Age’ entitled ‘The Qur’an and Time’), and with a mission to impersonate the true Messiah. Consequently Dajjal
the false Messiah would have to attempt to establish a world government through
which he would rule over the world from Jerusalem.
There is information in the life of the blessed Prophet which
indicates that the false Messiah was released into the world after the
Prophet’s Hijrah to Madina had taken place, and after the Jews of Madina had
rejected him as a true Prophet and the Qur’an as the revealed word of Allah
Most High. ‘Jerusalem in the Qur’an,’ has explained this subject in quite some
detail.
The Prophet also disclosed that one of the most formidable weapons
that the false Messiah would use to achieve his goal of ruling the world from
Jerusalem would be that of reducing mankind to such a state of internal
spiritual blindness that they would be incapable of perceiving his diabolical
strategies and would thus be deceived. (See ‘Surah al-Kahf and the Modern Age’
chapter on ‘Moses and Khidr’).
The Prophet disclosed the supreme strategy through which the false
Messiah would seek to impose his universal dictatorship over mankind to be the
weapon of Riba. With Riba he would enslave with poverty those who resist him,
and empower with wealth those who accept and support him. The rich elite of mankind so created would
then be used as clients and surrogates to exploit and enslave the poor masses
and rule over them on behalf of the false Messiah.
THE
GRAND DESIGN AND
THE
JEWISH-CHRISTIAN ALLIANCE
The Qur’an has strictly prohibited Muslims from entering into
friendly relations or an alliance with such Jews and Christians who themselves
reconcile and establish Judeo-Christian friendship and alliance. It did so in
the following momentous verse of Surah al-Maidah:
“Oh you who believe (in Allah Most High) do not take (such) Jews and
Christians as your friends and allies who themselves are friends and allies of
each other. And whoever from amongst you turns to them with friendship and
alliance belongs to them. Surely Allah will not guide a people who commit such
(an act of) Dhulm (evil, wickedness).”
(Qur’an, al-Maidah, 5:51)
We live in precisely such a world in which a Judeo-Christian alliance
has emerged for the very first time in history. It is that alliance which has
created modern western civilization, and which now rules the world through the
United Nations Organization, etc. It has created a monetary and economic system
through which it has already succeeded in unjustly enriching itself at the
expense of the rest of the world. It is that Jewish-Christian alliance which
established the International Monetary Fund. The reader must now question
whether the Qur’anic verse quoted above has prohibited Muslim membership in
international organization created and controlled by that Jewish-Christian
alliance. The answer should be obvious.
A rich elite now rules over the poor masses of mankind, and the
rich nations now rule over the rest of the world. In addition, the wealthy
ruling elite around the world now constitute one Jama’ah, and the stage is now
set for the appearance of their one Amir, who would rule the world from Jerusalem
and would be the false Messiah.
Those who cannot recognize Dajjal the false Messiah as the mastermind
behind the present world-order, now rule almost the entire Muslim world. They
consequently defy the Qur’anic prohibition while establishing and maintaining friendly
ties and even alliance with that Judeo-Christian alliance. So long as such
people continue to rule over Muslims, the Ummah of Muhammad (sallalahu ‘alaihi wa sallam)
would continue to remain imprisoned in miserable poverty and incapable of
resisting those who wage war on Islam on behalf of the State of Israel.
We now describe one of the processes of Riba through which Dajjal
empowers with wealth those who support him, and enslaves with poverty those who
oppose him. What he did was to establish an international monetary system that
corrupted money in such a way that it could be manipulated and made to function
as a vehicle of legalized theft, gigantic fraud, and economic oppression. One
of the very visible forms of such is the exploitation of labor through slave
wages. Around the world of the so-called
free market economy today, governments have found it necessary to impose
minimum wage legislation in order to prevent bloody rebellion by those
imprisoned in slave wages.
The reader can easily recognize the very heart of the process of
legalized theft in the international monetary system that the Judeo-Christian
alliance has created by focusing attention on an event that occurred in April
1933. The US Government enacted legislation at that time prohibiting American
residents from keeping gold coins, bullion or gold certificates in their possession.
Gold coins were demonetized, and were no longer permitted as legal tender. They
could not be used as money. If anyone was caught with such gold after a certain
date, he could be fined $10,000 and/or be imprisoned for six months. In
exchange for the gold coins and bullion, the Federal Reserve Bank, which is a
private bank, offered paper currency (i.e., US dollars) with an assigned
numerical value of $20 for every one ounce of gold.
Most Americans rushed to exchange their gold for paper currency,
but those who were aware of the rip off that was about to take place bought
gold with their paper currency and then shipped the gold away to Swiss banks.
It is significant that the British government also demonetized gold
coins in the same year as the US. They did so through the simple expedient of
suspending the redeemability of the sterling paper pound into gold.
After all the gold in USA had been exchanged for paper currency,
the US Government then proceeded in January 1934 to arbitrarily devalue the US
paper dollar by 41% and to then rescind the law of prohibition concerning gold
that was previously enacted. The American people rushed back to exchange their
paper currency for gold at the new exchange value of $35 per ounce of gold. In
the process, they were robbed of 41% of their wealth. The reader can now easily
recognize the legalized theft that takes place when paper currency is
devalued.
The Qur’an has specifically prohibited, hence declared Haram, such
a robbery of people’s wealth. It has done so, for example, in these verses of
Surah al-Nisa and Surah Hud:
“O ye who believe! Do not appropriate each others property and wealth
in a manner that is unjust and unfair: Rather, let business be transacted in a
manner that brings mutual satisfaction . . . .!”
(Qur’an, al-Nisa, 4:29)
"And O my people! give just measure and weight, and do not
deprive people of what is rightfully theirs by diminishing the value of their
things (such as value of labor, merchandise, property, etc.) and do not commit
evil in the land with intent to corrupt and destroy.”
(Qur’an, Hud, 11:85)
And Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu
‘alaihi wa sallam) has declared such
transactions which are based on deception, and which yield a profit or gain to
which one is not justly entitled (i.e., acts of ‘ripping off’), to be Riba.*
(*“Anas ibn Malik said that the Messenger of Allah said: Deceiving a
mustarsal (someone who is unaware of market prices) is Riba.”
(Sunan Baihaqi)
“Abdullah bin Abu Aufa said: A man displayed some goods in the
market and took a false oath that he had been offered so much for them though
he was not offered that amount. Then the following divine verse was revealed:
Verily! Those who purchase a little gain at the cost of Allah’s covenant and
their oaths . . . will get painful punishment. (3:77) Ibn Abu Aufa added: Such
a person (as described above) is a treacherous consumer of Riba.”
(Bukhari)
Transactions based on deception such as concealing the
market-price, can permit a seller or buyer to sell or buy goods at a price higher
or lower than the market price, and thus realise a gain or profit greater than
that to which he was justly entitled. We may now deduce that any transaction
which is based on deception and which realises for the agent of deception a
profit or gain greater than that to which he is justly entitled would be Riba.
The modern monetary system based on non-redeemable paper currencies that constantly lose value constitute precisely such
deception that yields profit or gain to which they creators of the monetary
system are not justly entitled. Hence it must be recognised as Riba.)
The Federal Reserve Bank appeared in the above incident to have
initiated a ‘trial run’ to test domestically the new monetary system through
which a massive and unjust transfer of wealth throughout the unsuspecting world
could be achieved. That transfer would take place through the simple device of creating
money out of worthless paper and then forcing paper currency upon all of
mankind. Those who control the monetary
system would then target certain currencies and force them to be continuously
devalued. As such paper currencies lost value the unsuspecting masses would
suffer massive loss of wealth, however, their ‘loss’ would result in ‘gain’ for
others.
Less than two years earlier, in September 1931, the British pound
was devalued by 30% and this gradually increased to 40% by 1934. France then
followed with a devaluation of the French Franc by 30%, the Italian Lira was
devalued by 41%, and the Swiss Franc by 30%. The same thing subsequently
happened in most European countries. Only Greece went beyond the rest of Europe
to devalue its currency by a whopping 59%.
What appeared to be "beggar thy neighbor" policies of
1930s — using currency devaluations to increase the competitiveness of a
country's export products in order to reduce balance of payments deficits —
resulted in plummeting national incomes, shrinking demand, mass unemployment,
and an overall decline in world trade that came to be known as the Great
Depression. However, it prepared the way for the imposition of an international
monetary system that ostensibly sought to bring order and prevent chaos in the
world of money and trade. In other
words, the Great Depression was artificially contrived in order to justify the
imposition of an international monetary system that would bring order to a
chaotic world of money.
This unusual and highly suspicious collaboration amongst European
countries in the almost simultaneous and utterly fraudulent devaluation of
their currencies should have awakened Muslims to the grave dangers posed by the
European Judeo-Christian monetary system of paper currencies.
The Judeo-Christian alliance went on to establish a ‘paper
currency’ international monetary system at Bretton Woods. They used the link
between the US dollar and gold in the Bretton Woods Agreement as a fig leaf to
hide the fact that paper could now be printed and used as money without any
requirement that it be redeemable in the market in real money, i.e., money with
intrinsic value. The Bretton Woods Agreement paved the way for the
International Monetary Fund to be established in 1944 with the explicit
function of maintaining an international monetary system of precisely such
non-redeemable paper currencies. By 1971 even the fig leaf disappeared when USA
reneged on its treaty obligation under international law to redeem US dollars
for gold.
It is amazing, really, that there was no significant Islamic intellectual
response to warn and mobilise Muslims to oppose the new fraudulent monetary
system. If scholars of Islam were blinded by the fig leaf that was the US
dollar, and could not see the fraudulent nature of the monetary system, there
has been no fig leaf since 1971 that could cover the shame of legalised theft.
Yet the world of Islamic scholarship still failed to see that modern paper
money was Haram. Consequently, the entire Muslim world blindly followed the
Judeo-Christian alliance into the proverbial monetary lizard’s hole.
As the European Judeo-Christian alliance decolonised the rest of
the colonised world they ensured that the decolonised non-European world was
absorbed into the new monetary system through membership in the International
Monetary Fund.
The Articles of Agreement of the IMF prohibited the use of gold as
money.*
(*Since this writer’s webmaster has informed him that someone from
the IMF has been a regular visitor to his website, he invites the IMF to correct
him in this matter if he is wrong.)
It did so by prohibiting any link between gold and paper currencies
other than the US dollar. Art. 4 Section 2(b) of the Articles of Agreement
stated: “exchange arrangements may include (i) the maintenance by a member of a
value for its currency in terms of the special drawing right or another
denominator, other than gold, selected by the member, or (ii) cooperative
arrangements by which members maintain the value of their currencies in
relation to the value of the currency or currencies of other members, or (iii)
other exchange arrangements of a member's choice.”
In April 2002, US Congressman Ron Paul sent the following letter to
both the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Bank (which,
incidentally, is a privately owned bank) asking why the IMF prohibits
gold-backed currencies for its member states:
Dear
Sirs:
I am
writing regarding Article 4, Section 2b of the International Monetary Fund
(IMF)'s Articles of Agreement. As you may be aware, this language prohibits
countries who are members of the IMF from linking their currency to gold. Thus,
the IMF is forbidding countries suffering from an erratic monetary policy from
adopting the most effective means of stabilizing their currency. This policy
could delay a country's recovery from an economic crisis and retard economic
growth, thus furthering economic and political instability.
I
would greatly appreciate an explanation from both the Treasury and the Federal
Reserve of the reasons the United States has continued to acquiesce in this
misguided policy. Please contact Mr. Norman Singleton, my legislative director,
if you require any further information regarding this request.
Thank
you for your cooperation in this matter.
Ron
Paul
U.S.
House of Representatives
It is significant that neither the Federal Reserve Bank nor the US
Treasury Department has so far responded to this request for an explanation.
The reason why they have not responded is that there is no explanation other
than the fact that the monetary system established through the IMF was designed
to rip off mankind and eventually impose financial slavery on all those people
who are targeted by the Jewish-Christian alliance which now rules the world.
The IMF was used to establish a new international monetary system
with new and strange monetary terminology, and Muslims found themselves
confronted by terms they had never before experienced. There was a world of a
difference between ‘local (paper) currency’, which was accepted as a medium of
exchange in the country in which it was issued, and ‘foreign exchange’ paper
currency that was the medium of exchange for trade outside of that country.
Therefore, if Muslims in Malaysia wanted to sell goods to Muslims in neighbouring
Indonesia, the Indonesians had to find foreign exchange to pay for their
purchases. However, such foreign exchange was, for all practical purposes,
limited to either European paper currencies or to the US dollar. Thus, the trap
was set for demand for such European currencies as the US dollar that then
became known as ‘hard’ currency. So long as the Judeo-Christian alliance could
maintain demand for their paper currencies all that they had to do was to keep
on printing such money and, in the process, keep on creating wealth out of nothing.
The evil plan behind the whole system was also to get Western
currencies, as well as those of their surrogates, to constantly increase in
value in relation to other currencies. That was achieved through the simple
device of either coaxing or forcing devaluation of targeted currencies. As such
currencies were devalued, it resulted in a massive transfer of wealth from the
masses to the elite. It also forced labour into working for slave wages, and it
imprisoned those who took hard currency loans from an ever-willing IMF and from
European commercial banks and now found themselves in ever-increasing
difficulty to repay those loans with interest. In fact, the entire monetary system
with its IMF centre piece was specifically designed to achieve such results.
Targeted countries were trapped with huge loans, were continuously drained of
their wealth, and were impoverished as they struggled to repay loans with money
that constantly lost value. It did not happen by accident.
Finally, and most glaring of all, the new international monetary
system of paper money facilitated the banking system, through fractional
reserve banking, to lend on interest money it did not possess. That, also, was
legalised fraud. I suspect that the Muftis of Islam neither understand what is meant
by fractional reserve banking, nor do they have adequate knowledge of the
history of international monetary economics briefly described in this essay.
When electronic money totally replaces paper currency, and the unjust monetary
system perfects itself, I fear that the Muftis would declare ‘electronic money’
as well to be Halal.
The IMF was created with a specific purpose of preventing currency
exchange restrictions that would hinder the constant devaluation of targeted
currencies. Thus the Articles of Agreement declared that the IMF would “assist in the . . .
elimination of foreign exchange restrictions which hamper the growth of
world trade.” The elimination of foreign
exchange restrictions would then expose a targeted currency to financial
attacks that would create opportunities for windfall profits as the currencies
lost value.
The international monetary
system that emerged out of the Bretton Woods Conference has already succeeded
in imprisoning the masses of mankind, including nearly the entire Muslim world,
in the prison of permanent poverty and (sometimes) destitution. However, when
paper money is replaced by electronic money, such would bring in its wake
financial slavery. Muslims must respond in an appropriate way if they are to
ever expect any divine assistance that could deliver them from financial
slavery. What can that response be? Where should they begin?
