I love capitalism in Saudi Arabia, free schools, free universities, free hospitals, government housing, ... Arabs since ancient times were merchants on trade routes, and so dealt with capital, debt, futures, and so on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSfFq02pK4s The Quran and Hadith discusses laws about capital, debts, companies, contracts and so on. But as with anything Middle Eastern, it gets progressively corrupted and monstrous the further west you go. An ambulance should be free, so should schooling, that's only obvious. The prosperity gospel is blasphemous and could only come from a soulless society that worships money.
