How can Muslims obey Allah in their personal lives if governments and society make it so difficult and almost impossible to live as Muslims? An example is not paying interest on a mortgage...one has to either pay rent on a house where the landlord then pays their mortgage off and becomes rich, or one takes out a haram loan oneself. Muslims do not even talk about establishing a halal economy, most of us have not got a clue what that is. Islam is more than just prayers and fasting...it is trade, business and government...as long as Muslims never talk about these or try to bring the halal in, we will be dominated by the kufr.
