Ah, the poetic symmetry of fiscal faux pas! If Gordon Brown’s #gold sale earned the nickname Brown’s Bottom, then Rachel Reeves’ potential liquidation of seized #Bitcoin—right as it hits record highs—might deserve a moniker just as memorable. "Reeves’ Reversal" or "Reeves' Remorse" – echoing the déjà vu of selling low and regretting later? This move could mirror Brown’s infamous gold sale. With Bitcoin now valued at over £5.4 billion from a single 2018 seizure, the stakes are high. Selling now could undermine strategic potential, especially as other nations consider Bitcoin reserves.

4/4 How Bitcoin is an Anti-Riba Technology If Riba is a system where money is created as interest-bearing debt, how can we build an alternative? #Bitcoin offers a fascinating technological solution. It is, by its very nature, an anti-Riba system. Here's how: #BitcoinIsHalal #AntiRiba 1. Bitcoin is NOT created as debt. Unlike #fiat money, which is loaned into existence by central banks, new Bitcoin is created as a reward for miners who do real work (Proof-of-Work) to secure the network. It's an asset earned through effort, not loaned into existence 2. Bitcoin is a Bearer Asset. Holding Bitcoin is like holding #gold. You own the asset itself. There is no counterparty risk and no inherent interest payment attached to it. It doesn't "breed" more Bitcoin. It's simply property. This is the opposite of money in a bank account, which is technically a loan to the bank. By providing a decentralised, scarce, debt-free monetary asset, Bitcoin offers a foundation to build a financial system free from the shackles of Riba. It's a tool for exiting a broken system. In our book "BITCOIN IS HALAL," we explore this for families. Get it on Amazon!

#FinancialSovereignty #Bitcoin

3/4 The Societal Impact of Riba & How to Fight It Riba isn't just a personal sin; its effects ripple through all of society. A system built on interest inevitably leads to debt cycles, booms and busts, and the concentration of wealth. We are living in the consequences. So, how do we fight back? #DebtSlavery #EndRiba The Problem: Interest requires that more money be paid back than was created. This creates a mathematical necessity for perpetual growth and competition, forcing individuals, companies, and even nations into inescapable debt cycles. It fuels consumerism and environmental destruction. How to Avoid/Fight Riba (On a Personal Level): ✅ Prioritise saving before spending. ✅ Avoid consumer debt (credit cards, car loans) where possible. ✅ Support and use Islamic banking/finance products built on risk-sharing (Mudarabah, Musharakah). ✅ Educate ourselves and our families. This is a form of jihad against a corrupt system. But we also need better tools. We need a monetary system that isn't debt-based at its core. We need a system that is anti-Riba by design. This is where the conversation gets very interesting... #SoundMoney

2/4 Beyond Islam - The Universal Problem with Interest The prohibition of usury (Riba) isn't unique to Islam. For centuries, the world's major faiths and philosophers recognised the destructive nature of charging interest on non-productive loans. This is a shared ethical heritage. #Usury #DebtFree 📜 In Christianity: The Bible contains strong prohibitions against usury. Thinkers like Thomas Aquinas condemned it as a sin against justice, arguing that it's like "selling time," which belongs only to God. 📜 In Judaism: The Torah prohibits charging interest on loans to fellow Israelites, emphasising brotherhood and preventing exploitation within the community 📜 Ancient Philosophers: Even before the major religions, great minds like Aristotle in ancient Greece argued against usury. He saw it as unnatural because money is meant to be a medium of exchange, not a "parent" that breeds more money from itself. This near-universal condemnation shows that the problem with interest isn't just a religious rule; it's a deep-seated human understanding of what constitutes a just and stable society. The modern debt-based system is an anomaly in human history. #History #Philosophy #Ethics

I'm buying the dip! #BTC #Bitcoin #BitcoinOnly #AntiRibaMovement

1/4 The Core of #Riba - Why Is It #Haram in #Islam? We teach our children that Riba (usury/interest) is Haram, a major sin in Islam. But do we explain why? It's not just an arbitrary rule. The prohibition of Riba is rooted in divine wisdom aimed at creating a just, fair, and compassionate society. Let's explore. ⚖️ #Riba #IslamicFinance 1. It's Inherently Unjust (Zulm): Riba allows wealth to grow from wealth alone, without creating any real value. A lender gets richer just by waiting, while the borrower in need falls deeper into debt. It transfers wealth from the poor to the rich, creating systemic inequality. 2. It Discourages Real Economic Activity: Why risk investing in a real business (which creates jobs and value) when you can get a "guaranteed" return from lending money? Riba incentivises hoarding and passive accumulation rather than productive, entrepreneurial effort. 3. It Erodes Compassion (Rahmah): Islam encourages helping those in need through charity (Sadaqah) and interest-free loans (Qard Hasan). Riba replaces this spirit of mutual support with cold, mathematical exploitation. It turns a relationship of aid into one of extraction. #NoRiba

Common FUD about Bitcoin (and How to Debunk It) "Bitcoin is only for criminals!" 🦹‍♂️ "It uses too much energy!" ⚡️ "It's too volatile!" 🎢 Bonus: "Bitcoin can be hacked" 👨‍💻☣️ These are common fears (FUD). In "BITCOIN IS HALAL," Baba helps Adam and Layla look at the facts. Let's debunk some FUD! FUD 1: Criminals. Baba explains that the public, permanent blockchain is a poor choice for crime! It creates a digital trail that investigators can follow. Cash is far more anonymous. FUD 2: Energy. Yes, Bitcoin uses energy – that's what makes it secure ("bounded by energy"). But we put it in context: how does it compare to the traditional banking system or gold mining? Plus, the trend is towards using renewable energy. FUD 3: Volatility. Mama agrees the price is volatile. That's why the book stresses that Bitcoin is a long-term monetary technology, not a get-rich-quick scheme. The key is education, not speculation. DYOR! Bonus FUD 4: Get hacked. Bitcoin’s core protocol has never been hacked in 16+ years. It’s secured by the most powerful computing network on Earth. Quantum computers like Google’s Willow chip are still millions of qubits away from threatening Bitcoin’s cryptography. The system isn’t bulletproof, but it’s antifragile: it gets stronger under pressure.” Teaching our kids to think critically and separate hype from reality is a vital skill. "BITCOIN IS HALAL" gives them the tools to do just that. Explore some of these conversations and more in the book, available on Amazon & Google Play Books!
