Pakistan’s Debt Trap: The Islamic Economic Solution Explained | Qanit Khalilullah | Orya Maqbool Jan

In this episode of A Dialogue with History with Orya Maqbool Jan, our guest Qanit Khalilullah discusses his book “Breaking the Trap of Debt, Inflation, Interest and Poverty,” co-authored with Sohaib Umar. The book presents a bold critique of the modern debt-based monetary system and argues that Pakistan needs a structural reform of banking, money creation, inflation control, and public debt management. The discussion focuses on whether Pakistan can move toward a Shariah-compliant economic model that reduces dependence on interest-based borrowing, controls inflation, and offers a practical path toward economic stability. The book’s central proposal is a full-reserve banking framework, where money creation is separated from private commercial lending and linked more directly with real economic growth. Qanit Khalilullah is a finance professional, chartered accountant, and economist with extensive experience in corporate finance and economic policy discussions. He has also presented ideas related to full-reserve and interest-free banking at public policy forums including PIDE and ICAP-linked events.
