The Road to Greed
Although the most important events happened in the 1490s and thereafter, it is also worth mentioning that the landscape of England was already undergoing major changes during the 15th century. As the economy was growing, medium and large-sized farmers began to fence their lands to protect grazing areas for their sheep. The wool trade was becoming lucrative. People began moving to towns to find jobs in industries belonging to the capitalists. The rich began to grab more land; this increased the number of landless poor [1].
These changes led to many protests against land reforms; eventually, Henry VIII had to intervene in the early 1530s and limit “the number of sheep that one farmer could own to 2,000.” However, farming sheep on a scale large enough for the textile industry required capital, something that only larger and wealthier farmers had [1].
But the years 1500-1650 were “hard times,” the people on low-incomes were severely effected in part because of the rise of the population, which grew from 2.3 million in 1520 to 4.8 million in 1630. Labour was increasingly plentiful, and “real wages for agricultural and industrial labour actually fell by up to 50 percent in the period.” The growing population, the demand for land, high rents, and low wages meant that rural England in the 16th century was increasingly in crisis [1]. Even in the 21st century, the majority of homeowners do not own the land their houses are built on. Annual rent is paid on the leasehold. The renters’ economy is parasitical.
The Rise of Capitalism
It is not possible to discuss England or the British Empire without discussing capitalism. One cannot discuss capitalism without discussing the money lenders. The history of Jewish bankers is central to the story of capitalism.
It should be clarified that the biggest Fitna creators and followers of the Antichrist are these atheistic international moneylenders. If you want to trace the source of evil, just follow the money.
In 1275, England’s Edward I issued a statute [2], intended to place restrictions on Jewish activities, mainly outlawing the practice of usury. Later on, in 1290, he expelled the Jews from England. Jews were not allowed back in England till 1600. One may ask, why 1600? This may have been because the Antichrist spent the 16th century preparing the groundwork. The problem he faced was that usury was forbidden in Christianity; the Pope had banned usury throughout Christendom. Creating the Anglican church became necessary as it would give tacit approval on all issues related to the Antichrist, including usury. The only group that was permitted usury were the Jews.
England was not the only one to expel the Jews from their land. France expelled the Jews in 1306, Hungary in 1360, Saxony in 1348, Belgium in 1370, Slovenia in 1380, Austria in 1420, Netherlands in 1444, Spain in 1492, Lithuania in 1495, Portugal in 1498, Italy in 1540, and Bavaria in 1551. Moneylenders were likely the main troublemakers on each of these occasions [3].
With the creation of the Protestant church and the return of the Jewish money lenders, the trajectory for England was set. The new path involved capitalism, usury, and debtism. You can imagine where one starts and the other finishes.
To expand trade and increase wealth, the British monarchs issued numerous Royal Charters, giving privileges to companies and shareholders, such as the East India Company [4]. Some of these Royal Charters are quite controversial because the real owners or shareholders of the companies involved were never disclosed to the public. It raises questions about who wants to remain anonymous.
When you are working with the Antichrist, you do not look at what is halal or what is haram. The legacy of the famous British voyager Sir Francis Drake is that he worked for the government; when not discovering new territories, he raided Spanish ships, bringing gold and wealth from the Americas. Piracy in the high seas under British protection [5].
During this time, the Antichrist was busy penetrating his fangs into the veins of his host and bringing England into debt. Between the years 1649 and 1694, England was put through one crisis after another as well as numerous wars to increase its national debt levels. The Bank of England was established as part of an agreement for the loan that was given by the Jewish money lenders in 1694 [3].
The Antichrist’s end goal was and always has been corrupting the society and economic bondage of humanity. The original debt in 1694 was £1,250,000, and this was increased to £16 million sterling [3]. UK general government gross debt was £2,537.0 billion at the end of Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2023, equivalent to 100.5% of gross domestic product (GDP) [6].
This is the nature of usury. It is inherently repugnant and disliked by Allah (SWT). One way of describing usury or the banking business is that they are considered by many as parasites. The headquarters for these parasites is in the City of London.
