A $20 Trillion Club — But the Ummah Watches from the Sidelines

Only one Muslim country has a Global 100 firm.

The Global 100 companies wield immense economic and political power, controlling over $20 trillion annually and influencing global trade, technology and governance. Their executives shape international policy and wield influence comparable to governments, steering agendas that affect nations worldwide. These corporations are not merely businesses — they are power brokers defining the modern world order.

Yet among them, only one Muslim-owned firm holds a place, revealing a stark imbalance in influence and opportunity. Greater Muslim representation would not only strengthen economic sovereignty but also elevate human capital. More Muslim-owned global behemoths could empower the Ummah to rise collectively through education, innovation and leadership.
