When you look at the timeline of the moslem religion, and compare it to the timeline of the Christian religion, the parallels of destructive zealotry are striking. Look at the insane overzealous shit certain sects of Christianity engaged in during the 1500's. And here we are with another 1500 year old religion (islam) engaging in basically the exact same overzealous dumbshit that happened during the inquisition age.
It's a bit older than that - Muhammad went to Medina around 622 and the conquest of Mecca concluded with his death around 632. Islam came from his direct followers, so it's about 1400 years.
In Catholicism, indulgences (or paying cash for sins) first started being granted under Pope Urban II (around 1090). There was a concept at the time where paying alms was considered at least part of a penance for sin, but it became much more problematic in 1476 when Pope Sixtus IV officially allowed the granting of indulgences for dead relatives in Purgatory, basically opening an entire can of worms.
For what it's worth, the US has been fighting Islam since it was founded. The US Marines had to battle the Ottoman Barbary Pirates in the First Barbary War from 1801 to 1805, and there had been prior engagements in the late 1700s (Algerian-American war). This is why the "shores of Tripoli" are mentioned in the Marine Hymn.
Ottoman Empire, especially further regions, were an Islamic religious state, and this would have put Islam at the same age as Christianity at the time the fiscal indulgences began.

700 AD Islam cult founded, so that would be 1300 years.
Revelation forbids it because it adds to and changes the Bible.
