Quote from "Islamic Banking in Britain",by Helena Christofi:

Perhaps the next conquest (of Europe),Allah willing,will be by means of ...ideology.Europe will see that it suffers from materialistic culture,and will seek an alternative...

Well,perhaps and perhaps not.But even if Europe seeks such an alternative,it need not necessarily be the Sharia model.

Here,for example, is what Aristotle had to say about usuary:

Title: Aristotle's View Against Usuary.

Note:

Aristotle (384-322 BC).

Almost all the works of Aristotle were available to Muslim philosophers in their Arabic translation.They called Aristotle,(Aristatalis),al-mu'allim al-awwal. i.e."The First Teacher".
