Interesting view, so a monetary shariah will in some ways be unprecedented. Does financial corruption disqualify a system from being shariah compliant? In the case of the ummayads where they presumably maintained a gold standard and the general prohibition of interest?

what is financial corruption?

as for the ummaiyads, there were many minting houses but i assume the control of coin was maintained by the same people who the first Muslims revolted agaisnt.

I would consider anything that involves stealing wealth from people behind the curtains of a system.

Ahh interesting. Will have to look into it

Thats a good description 😂

I would go with "theft".

They have thier twisted ways to rationalize theft, so calling corruption is out of bound.
