[@nasreenakhtar8521]

I could listen to Irfan for hours. The way he simplifies the things people try to make complex you see why you agree with what he says

[@Nina-e4v]

Harris Irfan is a great guy, makes lots of sense. He presents logic of Islam in the most sensible way.

[@Cardio62]

This is awesome episode thanks for the amazing discussion from both of you

[@SohaibAshraf]

Great conversation 🙌🔥

[@Crypto7860]

Thank you for highlighting Islamic Sharia Law! 👏🏽👏🏽

[@VainakhQuranites]

There is NO sharia law in the Quran!

[@christinakinne9790]

So true most religions have common creeds example; be honest; help your fellow man; respect your elders; do not disparage a good person; safeguard your enviournment; etc.

[@Justhunayn]

Here to listen Harris Irfan 👏

[@nurburgringkid]

Thank you very much Mr Harris Irfan, jazaakAllah khayran kathiran, may Allah reward you immensely in dunya and akhirah

[@commoncents2111]

Thanks for your service Robert.

[@bruceCampbell-q5h]

Great episode.

[@dakhilaf]

Very interesting episode and a very interesting guest.

[@amarmohammed5644]

Brilliant podcast I just brought his book, insha'Allah it's good

[@ArjuKarmakar-p9w]

You definitely have my sub. This content is next level. For me Unimantic was the turning point. Please keep doing what you do and keep being you, love it.

A good education on how Islamic Goldenage financing has influenced Western practice

[@GreenKnight7]

Feminism and wokeness is driving people to Islam.

[@JaimeWarlock]

Paying interest on a loan to buy a depreciating asset could almost be considered a moral failing. So charging interest could be considered taking advantage of people's moral failure, just like selling drugs or alcohol to an addict. At least, Western thought has evolved to consider bankruptcy to be a reasonable response to being unable to pay back a loan. We don't force people to "give a pound of flesh" or sell themselves or their offspring into slavery anymore.

[@zaryalai54]

My question is how to use bitcoin in daily trannsactions?

[@TheInvisible6812]

Lightning network!

[@tipuuu6749]

Been waiting for this episode thank you

[@nhamilton9537]

Build a parallel economy...where physical currency is based upon a fixed weight issued from within communities.

[@info.dfwbld7263]

I watch few Irfan’s videos and is worth watching as speaks about Islamic finance

[@fizzaiftikhar]

Not a single Islamic scholar shared any stance on bitcoin so far except for fatwas that "it's haram". I knew that those who call it haram have no idea how bitcoin works. Thank you for this podcast. We really needed it.

[@mohammedjahangeerali3863]

Could you please describe what is actual "money" in Islam?

[@Ali_UsedCarBull]

False plz don’t make blanket statements , most ulema I’ve talked to say it’s permissible . There is some who say it’s not permissible but there is always difference of opinion in such matters .

[@TheInvisible6812]

Some have!

[@TheInvisible6812]

There is a Bitcoin & halal group in Facebook

[@saminyasaranabil1238]

Some definitely have. Don't make sweeping comments.

[@adamali2886]

what happens to bitcoin when there is no internet and when there is no electricity. Can someone please answer this

[@tamimator]

Nothing. The ledger is still recorded and would pick up where it left. The bitcoin ledger is distributed and shared in over tens of thousands of locations. It’s the best backup that currently exist I would argue.

[@adamali2886]

@@tamimator without the internet and without electricity bitcoin dies

[@TheInvisible6812]

​@@adamali2886Nope! Satellite, Radio, letters work. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Greed is one of the big sins

[@VainakhQuranites]

Greed isn't a sin... USURY is.

[@christinakinne9790]

SOUNDS ALOT LIKE BC THE HOLDERS SUPPLY AND DEMAND MOVE BASED ON TRADES AND PURCHASE BY THE HOLDERS

[@APC-pm2on]

I'd love to listen to this podcast but there's just way to much marketing 😢

[@christinakinne9790]

DOES THIS MEAN THE PRICE IS HIGHER BECAUSE THERE IS " NO INTEREST CHARGED"? WHY WOULD A BANK TAKE THE RISK WITHOUT PROFIT? OR IS THE PROFIT LAID INTO THE PRICE?

[@DaoudBouazzae]

The modern Banks win always Thats the problem. Yes they can invest and its a win-win or lose-lose situation. In the other case yes the bank buys the house for exemple ( the bank owns the house, if the house burns the bank loses )and it leases for a higher price until you pay it off. There win comes from leasing the house and not lending money

[@meditationdaily1129]

What is the biggest challenge in front of Bitcoin?

[@Viper4ever05]

it's not stable and makes it difficult to use for transactions but that could possibly be remedied with enough people using it.

[@user-qk1ix7sf4e]

The problem is we trade it with fiat money. If you analyze a chart of bitcoin against gold, you will see its very stable. Yes its not completely stable but more stable than against usdt

[@bbbboy6587]

very good podcast

How do most of you guys still make profit? Even with the downturn of the economy and ever increasing life standards

[@Nicolewhit]

Well, I picked the challenge to put my finances in order. Then, I invested through the assistance of my discretionary fund manager

How many different ways can you just say "BOOIO!"?

[@JeremyHelm]

Lol. I clicked on my notification, composing that as a critique of Fox News is critique of Joe Biden leaning on the pope.

[@idoko327]

Interesting, thanks. Sorry if this is off topic, but I have a question: I have USDT in my Okx wallet, I want to withdraw it to Binance. But I don’t know how to do this correctly so as not to send them somewhere without a trace.. There is only a phrase for this wallet: head isolate sound end kit industry choice festival limit stable dolphin derive. Can anyone describe how to do this correctly and safely?

[@Viper4ever05]

Sakuk is a scam, he's right about that.

[@munshi.brojeet]

Is Harris Irfan for or against communism?

[@SAL-fs1mr]

Against

[@TisNomad]

He said in this conversation that private property is essential as well as preserving of it.

[@redman6790]

Every Muslim by definition believes communism is the antithesis of their beliefs. He vehemently is against any govt intervention.

[@LuisellaLorenzo]

I've faced substantial losses using online strategies. Do you have any suggestions on how to take advantage of the current bull run?

[@Raffi795]

As a novice, it's vital to have a mentor for accountability. I'm being advised by a reputable crypto consultant.

[@Raffi795]

She goes by Janet Freese Lindsey.

[@info.dfwbld7263]

Too many adds

[@jerricknaylor9686]

Really time to get rid of that long intro

[@zeenababy123]

Whitney Webb. Bitcoin will be seized by BlackRock.

[@adiintel1]

I remeber many years ago so many people practising islam said bitcoin is evil and not halal all that other bs what a time to be alive. In this bat shit crazy world.
