Ultimately , without oil Islam/Arab world would/will be in a very precarious position....and it will run out someday.

It will be very difficult to raise/maintain flowing fields of basmati rice and melons , once they lose this resource.

How will Allah provide then ?


As my uncle Clint says:

There is two kinds of flows in the world; cash flow from oil revenues, and cash flow from alternative energy, the difference is made into whose coffers this flow... flows into. -gg-

I expect the motivation to find alternative sources of energies by American enterprise will increase tenfold if not more.

Let's see how their idolatry for Allah strengthens their resolve to snuff at Western Capitalism, when they are forced to drink the oil that... will only flow out of the ground and not convert into cash flow.

Oil flow is good... so they won't choke on melons and rice alone. -gg-
