As part of its Islamic-based business model, Guidance Residential featured a recitation from the Quran by Noorulhuda Khalid, 10, during a recent gathering for prospective borrowers at the Mezban Curry and Grill restaurant in Houston.

Open the eyes....it's happening here now ...not Dearborn but Houston, Texas......
I don’t get liberals. They hate conservatives and their values, but love Islam even though they treat women like animals, etc.
So, if a white male looks cross-eyed at a woman, liberals want them hung. If a Muzzie enslaves and kills a woman,”Its their religion, nothing we can do about it.”
Answer? They have conservatives so much that they will side will far “worse” rather than agree with conservatives.
We infidels should seriously consider doing the shahada, which is how you become a muslim, (in name only of course) and then take out a loan with these people. Easy. Really. We should all do it. Never pay another dime of riba (interest).
Islam is winning the war.
Read the article—you end up paying more under this system. Plus, the house is never really in your name and no federal mortgage interest deducation. You never get anything for nothing.
Call it a "rental fee", call it a "usage fee", hell call it a banana. Whatever you call it it's interest. The loans are not more stable because they change terms on the loan doc, they are stable because they insist on 20% down. All lenders should get back to that.
As long as you don't call it interest it is not interest.
In my opinion, this is to dissuade anyone but Muslims from applying. Keep in mind that conventional Mortgage qualification can be impossible for those that have lesser credit scores.... I don't see where sharia lenders use FICO scores....
Complete fakery. Smoke and mirrors, so that they don’t have to “pay interest.” But they do pay interest. Only they don’t call it interest.
Question, can the non-interest be deducted from income taxes? If so, only for Death Cult members?
Madness.
Maybe you missed my point.....Getting a loan from a muslim Mortgage company is likely impossible for a Christian or Jew...yet a Muslim can get a loan from a non-muslim mortgage company backed by anti-discrimination laws.
(1)The “savings” part of such banks is becoming even more popular in the UK among non-muslims.
(2)My understanding is that what we call “interest” is already calculated into the total purchase price, then divided out into the “shares”. The bank makes a profit, don’t worry about that; it’s just called something different.
(3)There’s evidence that those profits are transferred overseas in allegedly charity organizations, which in turn fund terrorism. (see last item below)
(4)Many, if not most, of our own large banks have sections devoted to promoting Shariah finance and “mortgages”.
(5)Harvard University has an entire Sharia Finance Center and promotes academic forums and meetings extolling the topic. Guess which country’s royal family bankrolls the center.

“Islam is winning the war.”
They’re the only ones fighting it.
So, some Muslims have figured out a way to use their religion to rip off their co-religionists.
Yeah, it's a "rose by any other name" thing. I remember reading where prostitution was forbidden under Khoumeni (still might be), but they did sanction "one hour marriages".
I think this says it all -
All they sell them is holy water sprinkled over the mortgage,
This program is a success, and I think it deserves any praise that it gets. And I’m Jewish!
I can’t see why anyone would want one of these Muslim loans in the first place... Did you read the whole article?
It would be like being upset if say for example Yugo only sold to liberals and for more money... Who cares, it’s a Yugo... And they can sell or discriminate to whomever they want as long as it’s a private company.
Besides, I still believe in freedom of association... don’t you?
Already have it here in little Somalia(MPLS)

This was a post to you in post 11.
To futher detail my point, I mean the Muslim lenders should not be allowed to discriminate... See...this is another camel nose under the tent.
