Saalam Alaikum,
Dear brother/sister, or Ahmed if you are reading this yourself. I hope insAllah that this email will be read by someone who will be able to understand it and transfer it to someone worthy and ready to engage in its implementation.
My name is Mirza. I am firstly a Muslim, that is how I think, live and strive to be. Secondly, I am an economist, as I graduated from a London school of economics here in my country (Bosnia and Herzegovina) in Sarajevo.
Personally I am a dreamer, an inventive entrepreneur if you like… but in it I am also a sort of a philosopher as I like to think about the origin of things, how they work, why are they developed as such. In my thoughts I challenge everything in search for truth… and in cases where Gods word I challenge, I only find greatness and endless truth that I myself cannot grasp.
Why am I writing you this email?
My life has been divided between the borders of eastern civilization and western civilization, between observing sin and good… it was always a great simulation to learn from.
Derived from all my experiences and from more importantly as I feel it, Gods gift of understanding economic concepts without effort, absorbing them and feeling them… from it in my hearth a plan, or an idea was born.
Even before I read anything from many Muslim scholars, including yourself, I have understood the western concept of money and the word of Qur’an and I have found the ill reasoning and clear goals that stand behind everything that is going on in our modern world today and reasons how and why it is contradictory to the Qur’an and Islamic principles.
My plan is real, simple and “easily” accomplish-able… as it is based on the foundations of modern “their” economy and it is driven by its principles… however, towards the goal we have in the Qur’an.
I do not wish to talk explicitly about it here, but rather just wish to contact you in order to seek your help and advice and assistance in making my plan real and global.
The project prototype, the “product” has already been developed and it itself needs to be marketed.
My email is: [email protected] (nur – as the light 🙂 )
InsAllah… and Saalam Alaikum again my brother.
Mirza
