And Islam abhors innovation, or "bida," whereas modern economies rely on constant "creative destruction" (as the Schumpeterian phrase famously puts it), and a willingness to find new inventions, and new ways of manufacturing, and new ways to distribute goods or offer services.

But the reason for the "widespread poverty" is Islam itself, not only its resistance to "bida" (innovation) - which also means resistance to real, secular education - but also the inshallah-fatalism that Islam naturally encourages, and an all-encompassing belief-system that views everything non-Muslim with permanent and deep hostility.
