The ontology of money
From the very beginning of human history, there were always lenders, trying to make more wealth with what they could leverage, for example lending commodities like grains. If the borrowers were not able to repay back the lenders, the lenders would take whatever more they can imagine from the borrowers, for example land or even lives as slaves.
Thus lenders over time wanted an easier way to make more, and lending money for more became a better alternative for them. Money came into being from issuing an accounting scribe, noting owing an amount on paper. This paper has printed itself, over excessively, to this day into digits stored on banker’s computers.
That is where the capitalist version of the definition of money is wealth, is completely false and lies. Because it is said the whole reason money came into being is not to carry lots of coins and your real wealth with you, which is even more lies. The real reason money came into being, was for lenders to make more money and tell you this is real wealth.
Why money is Satanic
Lending for more is usurious and has always been great wrongdoing, to put it mildly, in Abrahamic way of life and other religions. Instruments of lending for more have remodelled itself and became more accepted over time for example personal loans. These lenders found ways to circumvent their wrongful ways even in the times where usury was strictly prohibited, to nowadays openly welcomed.
From the start, the monetary system was based on usury, for the purpose of multiplying money, to make more money. Money, especially to how digitally it has become, is a trial and a minor sign of the end of times.
Why money is not wealth
Money is just a medium of exchange and has no intrinsic value. Money has no intrinsic value because it’s valuable only as long as people believe it is. Its value doesn’t come from its physical properties but from social trust and collective agreement. Do not believe or even think that money is wealth and do not give power to money.
Abu Huraira (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that, the Prophet Muhammad (May Allah bless him and grant him peace said:
“Wealth is not having many possessions, but true wealth is contentment of the soul.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 6446
