The ad says that this scheme is also available to the infidel. I wonder what the fine print is(the sharia requirements; the sharia demands) for the descendants of apes and pigs. Surely it has to be discriminatory in some way, and, if it is, then it violates the “discrimination in lending” laws. But don’t hold your breath thinking that anything will be done about it.
BTW, with the U.S. government (taxpayers) guaranteeing these sharia-compliant loans, where are all the LIBERALS and their phony rants about the separation between church and state.

Debbie,
After your great work at outing Sheikh Al-Qaradawi as a Sharia advisor to the First Islamic Investment Bank, which owns Caribou Coffee, I should point out to you that Lariba relies on fatwa rulings issued by the Sheikh. However, it is unknown if he has closer links to Lariba.
Doesn’t Sawson look fetching with her neatly trimmed eyebrows? She has not referred to Sahih Muslim, Book 24, in which Muhammad forbade women to pluck their eyebrows: visit http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/muslim/024.smt.html and scroll down to Chapter 25.

Don’t be suprised if you find out one of them is an al qaeda operative or a spy at that matter. Thats what it usually alludes to when you hire foreign agents to work for Homeland (In)Security. Just how does Michael Chertoff exspect these newly hired burqa claded folks to protect us from their radical throat-cutting brethren?

I went to the website to figure out how they make money. Can someone please explain this to me. Instead of interest you lease to own the property. Is the profit in the lease part? ie it costs more to lease(rent) than own? I tried to look up what the effective interest rate is but couldn’t find it. And if I don’t have to pay interest do you think they’ll give me one of these sweet loans?
SANDY:
I’VE WRITTEN ABOUT THIS PHONY SYSTEM OF “INTEREST-FREE” LOANS FOR MUSLIMS ON MY SITE, BEFORE. YOU ASK A GREAT QUESTION: HOW CAN THEY MAKE MONEY? ANSWER: THEY MAKE MONEY BECAUSE THEY STILL CHARGE INTEREST. THE WHOLE IDEA THAT THEY DON’T MAKE INTEREST IS A FRAUD. WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT THE INTEREST FOR THE LIFE OF THE LOAN IS FIGURED OUT AND FIGURED INTO THE MONTHLY PAYMENT, WHICH IS DESIGNATED AS PRINCIPAL AND NOT INTEREST (EVEN THOUGH IT, IN FACT, INCLUDES INTEREST). IT’S BASICALLY A LAND CONTRACT.
MY OWN RELIGION, JUDAISM, ALSO FORBADE THE CHARGING OF INTEREST (WHICH IS FROM WHERE ISLAM STOLE THIS PART OF ITS MOSTLY PLAGIARIZED RELIGION). BUT WE JEWS LIVE IN THE 21ST CENTURY AND WE PAY INTEREST ON LOANS, INSTEAD OF ENGAGING IN FICTIONS AND SCHEMES TO PRETEND THAT WE DON’T PAY IT.

A bank and a car dealership insisted to me that the leasing payment they quoted me did not have a corresponding interest rate. But lease payments are based on multipying factors which in turn have corresponding interest rates. Leasing has always been a racket where the salespeople tell bold faced lies. This customers may think that they are not paying interest but they are, their loans are lies just like their religious interpretations.

Debbie, you responded to Sandy with “WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT THE INTEREST FOR THE LIFE OF THE LOAN IS FIGURED OUT AND FIGURED INTO THE MONTHLY PAYMENT, WHICH IS DESIGNATED AS PRINCIPAL AND NOT INTEREST”
The sharia compliance should prevent them from deducting (imaginary non-interest) mortgage interest on their tax forms . . .does it?
GOOD QUESTION. WELL, ISLAMIC LAW (SHARIA) REWARDS MUSLIMS FOR DECEIVING THE INFIDELS. IN FACT, MONEY OBTAINED BY CHEATING US NON-MUSLIMS IS CALLED “HALAL MONEY” (PERMITTED MONEY), WHICH IS THE BEST MONEY A MUSLIM CAN “EARN”. SO, IF THEY CAN DEDUCT IT FROM THEIR TAXES AND CHEAT US, ISLAM BLESSES THEM FOR DOING SO.

Debbie’s criticisms above of Islam and Sharia law are almost identical to the typical White supremacist’s criticisms of Judaism and the Talmud.
Did Mohammed copy stuff from Judaism and Christianity to create the Koran and Islam, or did God just basically give Mohammed the same laws He gave the Jews? Both are plausible, right?
As for the blog article, it’s much ado about nothing.

Such nice-looking, clean cut kids . . .
Debbie, why don’t you make posters stop using all caps in their comments? It’s SHOUTING and it’s makin’ me IRRITABLE.
