Lloyds TSB - Accounts for Muslims

Can somebody put it simply what the difference is between me and a muslim having a bank account with the TSB.

What benefits will they receive that I wont?

Thanks

 

Thank you


Surely they has to be some slight difference though or it doesn't make sense and seems quite pointless what they have done?

 

We think they are trying to sucker devout muslims onto accounts where the bank doesnt have to pay any interest into

 

I think th eword 'Islam' or 'Muslim' really gets some on here going

If they were giving away free suicide pills to muslims, some on here would cry

Anyhow, this is just a gimmick to get to those muslims who dont use the banking system in this country nothing more

I used to work for a bank (capital bank in wythenshawe) before I learnt about the whole muslim stance on usary/interest

I havent had interest on my savings for years through a normal account, most banks do this (although look at you strange when you say you dont want interest) and even stranger if your account is hefty

I remember the 'halal motgage' scheme that was attempted by HSBC and such what a joke. You ended up paying more than if you took out their standard mortgage over say 25 years.

There are some who fell/fall for it, but through bad advice or not knowing the rulings etc


As for the 'muslims' in casino's. I know this happens too, however I dont think they worry too much about interest etc either

LOL some on here are well racist

 

Were they not money-lending? Jews eh?

 

I had a registry job and a muslim wedding. But yeah the 'donation' was substantial.
It goes on in the mosques and the charities too. Where 'admin fee' or 'donations' are used instead of what is in essence a fixed price

Islamically if any 'charity' takes any of what you give to use in any way but to go to the poor then you shouldnt give. I have some cracking rows with some who knock on my door

As for the Jesus situation it was NEVER about deriving profit, it was for USARY. This gets taken as interest alone these days but in simple terms the word 'cheating' is probably closer. So the merchants putting weights under the scales etc

 

Apparently the major clearing banks have been offering these for a few years now but you can only apply for one if you can prove you are Muslim!!

That's not exactly fair is it?
I mean you dont have to show your knob to a Jewish butcher to buy Kosher meat!!

 

I still fail to see the problem, why would you want an account that complies with sharia law if you are not Islamic?

 

so do you WANT a bank account that DOESNT offer interest?

or do you think its unfair that YOU can make money by simply putting money into a bank but a muslim cant?

 

There is more to sharia law than what the banks are saying/doing

however I think TC is just showing his prejudices here

Its a better deal for non muslims, surely? as they get interest therefore more money

I bet he complained about the deaths in the pakistan plane crash as it was 98% muslims who died

 

But they don't pay interest on overdrafts!!

 

**** en I say.

 

Balls.

You go by the law of the country you reside in.

Otherwise gtf.

 

Wont be allowed one on that account. Its a basic cash account

 

We live in a country of many cultures and religions, that's the way the British Isles have been since the beginning of time so all the banks are doing is catering for a particular group.

If you don't like it gtf

 

Load of ****e but each to their own craziness. Religion is poo though.

 

Who cares?
