Anti-Riba Money: Dismantling Usury Through Bitcoin

By Abdullah Ibn Oda

Anti-Riba Money: Dismantling Usury Through Bitcoin offers a powerful Islamic case for why Muslims must reject fiat currency and embrace Bitcoin. Drawing from Austrian Economics and the Islamic tradition, this book begins by unpacking essential economic concepts to lay the groundwork for understanding money. It then explores how classical Islamic civilization fostered and embraced free markets, disruptive technologies, charitable institutions, and sound money.

It then delves into the nature and types of Riba, its moral and structural consequences, and how usury became embedded in fiat currency through examining the Federal Reserve, commercial banking, and global financial institutions. The book then analyzes how "Riba money" distorts markets, fuels unsustainable debt cycles, and reshapes incentives across the economy-ultimately corroding social trust, undermining moral responsibility, and eroding the spiritual and communal fabric of society.

The chapter on failed alternatives like gold and Islamic banking set the stage for introducing Bitcoin as a true anti-Riba solution. Bitcoin's fixed supply, decentralized structure, and ethical neutrality are presented as uniquely compatible with Islamic values. The book then distinguishes Bitcoin from altcoins, and it then dismantles the flawed claims in "fiat fatwas." It ends with a vision for a "Financial Hijra," showing how Muslims can build a parallel economic future rooted in justice, sovereignty, and sound money.
