![Photo: This is the day Dr Mahathir heard about the Dinar: with my meeting him while he still was the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Many wonder why the “Dinar of Mahathir” did not work. I will tell you what went wrong. Mahathir took my idea and submitted to his bureaucrats who changed it round and transformed it into the “Malaysian Dinar Proposal”. He made three mistakes: 1] He thought (like many others) that the approach to bring the Dinar was from the top; he went to the OIC and the IDB to promote the Dinar. They were not interested or ready. 2] He wanted the Dinar to replace the US dollar, because –he said- it was worthless, but he did not want to replace the ringgit -although it is backed by “worthless” US dollar assets. 3] He forgot to mention the name of Allah, and without Allah the dinar is a worthless piece of metal.
The right approach is from the bottom up. The Dinar and Dirham must be a people’s revolution, because if somebody can “give” you freedom, it can also take it away from you: freedom must be taken by yourself. And the Dinar must be a universal currency that replaces not only the US dollar but all the worthless paper monies. Finally, the reason we want the Dinar and the Dirham is because Allah has forbidden Riba; He has declared freedom to trade by mutual consent (which makes paper money worthless); and this is the currency mentioned by Allah and used by His Messenger, salallahu alayhi wa sallam. And Victory belongs to Allah.](http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/c0.94.843.403/p843x403/185230_452472334795650_1035773403_n.jpg)
This
is the day Dr Mahathir heard about the Dinar: with my meeting him while
he still was the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Many wonder why the “Dinar
of Mahathir” did not work. I will tell you what went wrong. Mahathir
took my idea and submitted to his bureaucrats who changed it round and
transformed it into the “Malaysian Dinar Proposal”.
He made three
mistakes: 1] He thought (like many others) that the approach to bring
the Dinar was from the top; he went to the OIC and the IDB
to promote the Dinar. They were not interested or ready. 2] He wanted
the Dinar to replace the US dollar, because –he said- it was worthless,
but he did not want to replace the ringgit -although it is backed by
“worthless” US dollar assets. 3] He forgot to mention the name of
Allah, and without Allah the dinar is a worthless piece of metal.
The right approach is from the bottom up. The Dinar and Dirham must be a people’s revolution, because if somebody can “give” you freedom, it can also take it away from you: freedom must be taken by yourself. And the Dinar must be a universal currency that replaces not only the US dollar but all the worthless paper monies.
— with Hajj Abdassamad Clarke . The right approach is from the bottom up.

And the Dinar must be a universal currency that replaces not only the US dollar but all the worthless paper monies.
Finally, the reason we want the
Dinar and the Dirham is because Allah has forbidden Riba; He has
declared freedom to trade by mutual consent (which makes paper money
worthless); and this is the currency mentioned by Allah and used by His
Messenger, salallahu alayhi wa sallam. And Victory belongs to Allah.
