A Simple Lesson in Economics, Generosity, and Common Sense
Dear Syedna,
السلام علی من اتبع الهدی
First, let me congratulate you on constructing what might rightly be called one of the most successful religious enterprises of the 21st century. You have indeed built a global empire on a foundation of absolute obedience, emotion-driven economics, and the time-tested formula of spiritual capitalism—collect now, promise paradise later. Truly, your predecessors would be astonished by the ruthless efficiency and business acumen you display in monetizing religious sentiment.
However, amidst the applause of your 500 (give or take a few) super-rich sycophants and beneficiaries scattered across continents, it seems you've missed an embarrassingly obvious trick in Economics 101: **Investing in your flock is not generosity, it's strategic greed!** Even Pharaoh had the wisdom to provide bread to those who built his pyramids; surely you can see the sense in providing at least basic education and healthcare to your obedient and compliant subjects?
Let’s break it down for clarity:
* You gather billions in **Wajebāt and Najwa al-Shukr** yearly. Impressive!
* Yet, not a penny visibly returns to the broader masses who faithfully fill your coffers. Peculiar, to say the least!
* Imagine the profit potential if, instead of hoarding wealth among the few, you actually spent some of it—(don’t panic, just a fraction!)—on improving education and healthcare for ordinary mumineen.
Just think about it: A community of healthier, better-educated people would mean more prosperous followers who could contribute even greater amounts in future Wajebāt cycles. Currently, by squeezing your faithful but already struggling masses dry, you’re essentially slaying your own golden goose—year after year, feather by feather.
Take **Saifee Hospital**, for example. Ah, yes—the pride and joy of your so-called community welfare. A medical establishment that charges like a five-star private hospital while proudly waving the banner of your name! But here’s the rub—ordinary mumineen can’t even dream of receiving free or significantly subsidized care there. What's next? An exclusive Saifee Hotel and Casino? At least let’s call things what they really are—high-end profit centers masquerading as charity.
And let’s not forget the **Madrasa Saifiyah Burhaniyah (MSB) schools**, where fees rival elite private academies. When mumineen who already struggle to pay your endless spiritual taxes also must drain their pockets for their children's basic education, it makes one wonder if you're genuinely running a religious community or auditioning for CEO of a multinational corporation. Can you blame them for quietly wondering whether the “madrasa” label might be more truthfully replaced with “luxury education boutiques”?
If appealing to basic humanity won't work (which clearly hasn't), perhaps appealing to basic self-interest will. Wouldn't it be strategically brilliant—nay, economically ingenious—to shift some of your hoarded wealth into genuinely subsidized education and healthcare? The short-term pinch to your empire’s balance sheet would quickly be offset by a boom in the wealth and loyalty of your followers.
Your current strategy is equivalent to owning a dairy farm and refusing to feed the cows because the feed costs money. Newsflash: starving cows produce no milk. Nourished cows give milk, butter, cheese—and yes, even more cows! Likewise, nourished followers give back loyalty, love, and—most importantly for your treasury—even more gold, cash, and najwas.
Consider this scenario for a moment: If you provided proper subsidies in education and healthcare, your loyal base of super-rich families could swell from a mere 500 to perhaps 2000 or more. Imagine quadrupling the pool of wealthy mumineen who will shower you with even more lavish gifts, comforts, and endless najwas. Think of the added benefits: bigger villas, fancier cars, and even more grandiose Ashara gatherings!
In short, Your Holiness, this isn’t just about generosity or moral obligation. That ship has clearly sailed. Rather, it’s about enlightened self-interest and common sense economics. Surely a spiritual CEO of your stature can see the logic in this?
So, here's your chance: Demonstrate that you’re at least as economically clever as you are spiritually convincing. Give back a fraction of what you take, and watch your empire flourish even further. After all, wouldn’t you rather rule over a healthy, educated, and wealthy community of happy mumineen than preside over a slowly impoverishing flock, disgruntled, disillusioned, and quietly questioning your divine economics?
Respectfully,
Abde Allah SWT and his Hujjat Imam uz Zaman (as)
