Because of a lawless culture based on power.
Anyone who tries to get ahead financially finds himself the victim of the mullah who was told by allah that your wealth should now be his.
There are no secure property rights in Islamic countries.
Islam means 'submission'. When allah says you should give everything you have in the name of jihad, you do it or die.
The oil industry in muslim countries was developed by industrialized nations like the uSA, Europe or Russia. Otherwise it would be the slum it's been for centuries.

It isn't. Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Malaysia, Bahrain, &Indonesia are not what I would consider "slums." But I do admit there are alot of Islamic countries that are very poor and do not have access to proper education. We look at South America and parts of Africa (Christian parts) where there is no good education system and high rates of crime, that doesnt mean we categorize them as one big group of Christians. Maybe it has to do with suppression of some Middle Eastern countries; where people's quality of life is low, and on top of that America is blowing them up. More than 30,000 Iraqi kids have been brutally murdered. All I know, is Islam isn't the culprit; it's just a bad time for the Middle East. Maybe instead of complaining and starting rumors, we can have the integrity to pray for them and all people who suffer around the world. Peace

You are either prejudicially stupid or grossly ill-informed. Most of the Muslim countries, though they do have their cast systems, are quite wealthy and have many of the worlds greatest monuments, temples and palaces. Have you ever been to Dubai or any of the UAE country states? What of all the other countries others have listed here. Yes, SOME Mid-Eastern countries are currently suffering under "less than desirable" governesses, but this is slowly changing. Most people want freedom. Many have just began to fight. Many have lived under such brutal terrorism for so long it will take some more time before they join the fight against distorted Muslim terrorism.

Well, I don't know the whole of the Muslim world, so I'm not sure it right what you're saying. I doubt your statistics, though.
There is a great contrast between rich and poor there, that is true. The same is true of many South American countries, which are mainly Roman Catholic, I believe. So I wonder if it has anything to do with religion.
Probably has more to do with true democratic development in countries.

if your intention is to mean that wealth is a sign of God being on the side of the wealthy nations then how do you explain the literally thousands of homeless people right here in my city? and was not the followers of Jesus the poor?was the Pharaoh of Egypt not the most wealthy person on earth when He was destroyed by God?your ignorance is embarrassing even me.lesson.it is not where you live that impresses God.nor is it the the possessions that will one day leave you.but it is the heart that He will scan.and by your question you have told on yourself.one might ask why do children go hungry in the richest christian country in the world?its inconceivable that someone,anyone could go hungry in this land of milk and Christianity.so step back,check yourself..before you wreck yourself.

They don't want to live in expensive houses cause they'll just be burned down by a violent protest riot that breaks out every week.

Because that's the way you see it. Might be your ignorance speaking or your fatuous knowledge of the world outside your own mind.
