Default Re: Bill Gates drops to #3 in World's Richest

Basically, long story made short:

You really have no clue what you're talking about, and you've failed - time and time again - to provide any real evidence for your claims.

You said:

Quote:
In Islam no ONE man Can be that rich.
If he treats people as HUMAN BEINGS and pays his zakat annually, theres just no way a man can be 50+ billion.
I asked you to provide proof for this statement - you gave absolutely zero proof.

Moving on, you said:

Quote:
If were talking Islam being PRACTICED, lets keep it to the Ahlul Bayt...I'm not touching a "sahabaa" argument.
Yes, you limited it to Ahlul-Bayt because you realized that you were standing on some really thin ice - because the Sahabaa are our role models.
Many of them were businessmen.
You know full well that many of them were poor, and many were rich.
You know full well that the ones who were rich contributed massive financial backing for the rise and spread of Islam
You know full well that we've been told to spend our wealth and our lives in the way of Islam, and we JUST CAN'T DO THAT if we're all poor or middle-class.

And then, realizing that you worked yourself into a hole by trying to limit your argument to Ahlul-Bayt, you narrowed it down to Ali and Fatima. You very conveniently excluded Prophet Muhammad [saws] himself who was a very successful businessman before Islam, and you excluded his wife Khadijah who was a very rich businesswoman who contributed massive amounts of financial aid for the sake of Islam.

Why do you choose to persist upon indefensible stances and statements? You keep making up these straw-man arguments that have no basis, no foundation, NOTHING. I ask you for proof, you provide none. I tell you to go back and refine your statements so that you can present a strong, solid, polished stance on this issue and you consistently refuse to do so.

You don't even present a viable alternative.

All you do is rant and rave against people and practices you perceive to be wrong or unethical.

Carry on.
