Description The Nineteenth Century saw the final abandonment of inhibitions against usury, and thus the evolution of usury banking onto its path towards political power. It marked the rise of the financial houses and instruments which led to the fall of the Caliphate. In this book, Shaykh Abdalqadir as-Sufi discloses the link between the technical project, the driver of the Tanzimat – railways in particular – and interest-debt mechanisms and institutions which made the two phenomena seem one; a tantalising Trojan horse. ” No technology is without banker’s licence.” This important text with elucidation by Asrar Rashid on how the Osmanli Caliphate was destroyed is essential reading for those seeking to understand the prevailing conditions and the present, intentional break up of Europe. “This book is unique as the author gets to the jugular vein of the problem facing the Umma today, summarising matters in a way that removes the task of reading through voluminous source books and references to reach the same conclusion.” —Asrar Rashid.
