Collective Property Ownership for Muslim Communities Creates Wealth By Zaid Adib Ansari
This book is designed to help Muslims obey Allah by avoiding Riba in home purchasing. Muslims pool monies to avoid Riba often. I have watched this practice take place among Muslims from Somalia who live in the United States. For many of them, collective money pooling is a trusted cultural practice. However, for many other Muslims in the West, this practice needs to be learned. I developed the concept of a Lifestyle Contract Group to simulate a cultural habit that some Muslims from the West find hard to accept, for many reasons. I pray that this book will encourage an adoption of this practice.
