Mas Budi mungkin tidak baca Hadits Bukhari yang menyatakan bahwa harga seekor kambing itu 1 dinar (Rp 1,3 juta) pada zaman Nabi. Nah sekarang pun harganya begitu. Jadi emas itu tidak inflasi atau pun deflasi. Nilainya stabil.
Mas Budi mungkin tidak tahu bahwa di dunia ini ada pertambangan emas (contohnya: Freeport di Papua, Cikotok, AS, dsb) sehingga emas jumlahnya terus bertambah sesuai dengan pertambahan jumlah penduduk manusia. Mas Budi mungkin jarang jalan2 ke Mall/Pasar sehingga tidak pernah melihat toko2 emas di mana emas banyak dijual di pasar.... Lihat juga surat Al Kahfi di Al Qur'an di mana seorang penghuni gua menyuruh temannya membawa beberapa Dirham (3-4 Dirham atau senilai Rp 90-120 ribu) untuk membeli makanan bagi 5 orang. Nah jumlah itu kan tak jauh beda dengan sekarang di mana seporsi harganya sekitar Rp 18 ribu. Insya Allah ajaran Islam itu pasti benar. Sedang yang lain itu adalah thoghut atau dari syetan yang akan menyengsarakan ummat manusia (contoh: Krisis Keuangan Global). --- budi darmawan <[email protected]> menulis: > > Inflasi akan tetap terjadi sekalipun emas dan perak > digunakan sebagai alat pembayaran, > > Masalahnya bukan di mata uangnya, tetapi dari > "kelangkaan" .
