A collection edited by Ahamed Kameel Mydin Meera making the case for money tied to real value, and for payment systems built on Islamic principles.
A collection edited by Ahamed Kameel Mydin Meera that looks at money and payment systems from an Islamic perspective. The title states its argument: money should be real, tied to genuine value rather than created as debt, a theme he also pursued in The Islamic Gold Dinar. The book examines how today’s monetary and payment arrangements work and what an alternative built on Islamic principles would involve. IIUM Press published this second reprint in 2013.
