Inflation in the Islamic system : can inflation happen under an Islamic system ?
Fatawa Question
As Salamu Alaikum my question is about interest (Riba). Suppose if I give loan of some amount to someone, who returns the same amount of money in two years or more, now the amount I gave him has now depreciated in value, so in effect I am actually getting less money as compared to the money I gave him. Had I used that money in my business I would have got some profit. Does Islamic Shari’ah recognize this or this is a western way of thinking. Your answer will be greatly appreciated. Regards
