Why Muslims Should Not Partake In Mmm; With Facts From The Holy Quran. by YoungSoldier(m): 11:52am On Nov 08, 2016
Basically, mmm is community where people rendered or provide help in expectations for getting a more greater reward in help (30% per month above your initial help)
And what does An-Nasir says about providing help to others?

Islam teaches us to give alms and donation to seek for rewards in the Hereafter. Whenever we prepare some money to be pledged or donated, we already intend to get the rewards in the Hereafter.
Allah says in Surah Baqara (261-262):
*"The example of those who spend their wealth in the Way of Allah is like that of a grain of corn that sprouts seven ears, and in every ear there are a hundred grains. Thus Allah multiplies the action of whomsoever He wills. Allah is Munificent, All-Knowing. Those who spend their wealth in the Way of Allah and do not follow up their spending by stressing their benevolence and causing hurt, will find their reward secure with their Lord. They have no cause for fear and grief"*

The Messenger of Allah – peace and prayer of Allah be upon him- also advised us, so that no matter how small that we give, we give it due to our fear of Allah’s punishment.

*"Fear the Hell, (and protect yourself from it) even with a half of date fruit. If you don’t have it, then by saying good words.”* (Narrated by Bukhari no. 1413, Muslim 1016, and others).

Verses and hadith that speak about this matter are numerous.
Islam also teaches us to give something to other without wishing for greater return. Allah reminded us,
*“and bestow not favor in order to seek from others a greater return,”* (Al Mudatsir :6)
The explanation of the above verse was explained further *’Do not give something to seek for a better return.’* (See: Tafseer al Qurthubi, 19/67).

My Brothers and Sisters in Allah's Deen, the devil will not stop in his tricks to lure Muslims to *Riba* shaitan will use different methods, ways and names to qualify Riba (Interest) such as reward, bonus, charge.

MMM is not Islamic and every Muslim should not get involved in it, as it has elements of Riba.

*What is Riba*

The literal translation of the Arabic word riba is increase, addition or growth, though it is usually translated as 'usury'. While English speakers usually understand usury as the charging of an exploitative interest rate, the word 'riba' in Arabic applies to a wider range of commercial practices.
Several methodologies exist in traditional and modern literature for understanding riba. However, two common elements of riba that are identified by almost all Muslim scholars are riba al-fadl and riba al-nasia .
Riba al-fadl involves an exchange of unequal quantities of the same commodity simultaneously, and could therefore be described as the usury of surplus. Riba al-nasia, the usury of waiting, involves the non-simultaneous exchange of equal quantities of the same commodity and does not therefore involve a surplus but only a difference in the timing of exchange. Some writers employ the term riba al-nasa to define such an exchange. Hence, an exchange in which I part with 100 grammes of gold now in return for 100 grammes of gold to be received from you tomorrow can be described as riba al-nasia. An exchange in which I part with 100 grammes of gold now in return for 110 grammes of gold to be received from you now can be described as riba al-fadl.
The Combination of the above riba type now *Riba al-qarud*us what is applicable in MMM which makes it *Harram* for Muslims to partake in it.

*Allah's Warning*
Surah Rum:39 *And that which you give in riba to (others), in order that it may increase (your wealth by expecting to get a better one in return) from other people's property, has no increase with Allah*

Allah says in another verse Imran:30
*"O you who believe! Do not take Ribs doubled and multiplied, but fear Allah that you may be successful"*

And finally, as warning and reminder to everyone Believers who already in it, Allah says:
Baqara:278-279 *"O you who believe! Fear Allah and give up what remains (due to you) from riba (from now onward), if you're truly believers. And if you do not do it, then take a notice of war from Allah and His Messenger but if you repent, you shall have your capital sums. Deal not unjustly, and you shall not be dealt with unjustly."*

A sincere advice from me to you.
