What country do you think I'm from? That may explain it for some countries like Palestine area, but it definitely does not explain why many muslim countries (where "muslim country" = >50% of inhabitants are muslim) have the weakest economies and the highest income inequalities.

IslamQA is not a good source. Even muslims debate on it.
I was talking about europe/america in general. But you may not be from there.
Anyways i apologize for being combative.
You're going to specify what you mean by muslim country. Do you specifically mean the arab world? If so, most if not all countries there have problems beyond just religion. Usually history of colonialism, [civil-]war or dictatorship, which unfortunately in my above point, most were caused or elevated more by those countries.
