    Great video Almir.
    As a Turk, I can tell you that Syrians are hardworking, smart, practical and tough people. Especially their youth learnt from hard times and you can not believe the kids when the war started, are brilliant teenagers now. Their hearts are burning to serve Ummah. They are not just happy to rescue Damascus but because of the walk through Palestine. I will not be surprised if we see Syria collaborate with Turkiye in the production of the 5th gen fighter or space technologies less than 10 years later.

      There are about 15 million crypto "Turks" in Turkiye. They have the media power and great fundings. There are also bad apples which is not more than any other country. There are many Syrians I have seen who is not appreciative towards Turks at all. If I force myself to remember there are pretty bad experiences I had personally.
      We should not let those idiots write our memories and history. We are brothers and sisters have been through a lot of struggle for more than a millenia. We have stopped corruption in the world many times and now we are walking towards Palestine shoulder to shoulder InshaAllah.

    This is a very good start jazakAllah u khairan Brother Almir - mashAllah you don't fail to deliver may Allah preserve you. This was a very good intro and big picture view on what needs to be done.
    In my humble view, the next task should be draft a list of items or key short term goals that need to be accomplished (within the international legal framework) in the next 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. What can Muslims do to support these goals should be indicated. What can Muslim governments do, what can average Muslims do, what can Muslim businesses do, and so on. This way we can try and help the Syrian people get their infrastructure up and running, and then their local businesses, then moving onto manufacturing, technology, and so on.
    This is just an idea that came to me after watching this video. Perhaps a committee can be formed with local Syrians on board who are already within the society, and we can try this approach out with a short term goal in a particular city and see in 2-3 weeks what the effect is and then try to expand it to include all major cities.
    Especially what Br Almir said about Turkiye supporting in a planned organized way, so government is already doing a lot, what can other Muslims folks do, this is what needs to also be shared.

      With their most productive wheat growing region in the hands of an autonomous zone and the largess of foreign partners exhausting … this is more important than ever before. It’s often the case that investors and managers’ interests are considered before labor (who make up the majority of the people) that cannot be sustainably productive without food, clean water, shelter, medicine, and direct cash subsidies … May Allah reward you for thinking of the common need ahead of the requirements of investors who might be more interested in their returns (even if they are as fleeting as their existence).

    • @atherzaidi5871
      @atherzaidi5871 День тому

      @Sovnarkom it is important that investors make profit. Why will they invest otherwise and why will more investment come. If Syria has to stand on its feet, it has to make sure that investors who dare to come to a warn torn, bombed out, divided country get the best laws, best facilities and best help. If the initial investor makes money, more will come. Syria would need investment in Cement plants and steel recycling plants. All those bombed out houses have steel bars in side them. That construction grade steel is worth billions. Someone has to be smart enough to recycle it. Syrians would need to make electricity from their oil and use electric arc furnace to melt and recycle those Steel rebars. Once cement and steel are available locally cheaply, Syrians will rebuild their homes without much outside help.

      Agricultural production is very high in Syria even now, in Kuwait we get many agricultural products, citrus, other fruits , olives and olives oil from Syria, I think the Syrians who are some of the best entrepreneurs can do wonders if allowed to work without intervention from major powers whether regional or far away. Respect from Kuwait.

    I have questions:
    1-After every crisis I think the inflation will get high due to increase of demand (rehabilitations, construction, rebuilding...) how can we tackle this?
    2-What is the correct balance for the new government to have restrictions on exports in order to stop the money (USD for sure) to go out of Syria where it is needed?

    • @AlmirColan
      @AlmirColan  2 дні тому +1

      1. It is natural that prices of some material will increase but that also sends signal to business people to bring it in… so that should be left to market to fix 2. Instead of policing people better focus on incentives for people to invest money and stay in Syria.
      Best policy is to create place that provides confidence and hope to people to build something - that will take care of other problems

    One of the overlooked strengths of Sharia law is its alignment with a free-market, capitalist system. Contrary to Western assumptions that rebuilding Syria requires massive infrastructure programs or centralized governance, the most crucial role of the new government should be to empower families and individuals with limited government controls. Syria’s religious communities are known for their strong family structures. By stepping out of the way and allowing families to flourish through free markets, Sharia law can provide the framework for regional and national prosperity.

      Right of the workers are that you treat them with respect, without coercion, fairly - and that mean there is clear job description what is expected and agreed… as long as there is no cheating, deception or damage done to workers then both parties are free to negotiate salary and other benefits. There should be no coercion in negotiation or forcing outcomes by anyone. All should be done with mutual consent. Beyond that Islamic teachings of paying on time and similar should be advocated as part of ethical business practice etc. law should just enforce what was agreed upon by contract and free will

    I have really enjoyed your sessions on the reasononing behind prohibition of Riba in Islam, Christianity and judaism. But I don't think your analysis of Turkiye's ecknomy is correct. Turkey's economy is in troublel, the inflation is out of control, external debt to gdp% is, very high and a lot of the investments for real estate and industry are stolen laundered money from Afghanistan and Syria and other countries. There is no Baraka in stolen money, so I am not very hopeful for their future.
