Leverage:
1. (a) The action of a lever (b) The mechanical advantage of a lever
2. Positional advantage; power to act effectively
3. The use of credit or borrowed funds to improve one’s speculative capacity and increase the rate of return from an investment, as in buying securities on margin.
Leverage in Business, Finance & Investment
Basically we can have a great leverage by using Other’s People Time & Other’s People Money.
For example, the owner of the unit trust company or an insurance company will create a system where they can have thousands of sales individuals to sell their financial products. At the same time, they got the investor’s money to accumulate their own wealth.
Yes, the greatest salesperson in the company could achieve millions on commission annually but the real wealth is with the owner of that company who knows the power of leverage.
A smart business man and investor always looking for a leverage in their ventures.
Islam & Leverage
I personally think that the concept of leverage in Islam has been laid down in Quran & Sunnah by these nass.
a. The Lailatul Qadr is better than a thousand months. (al-Qadr : 3)
b. 
(Bukhari & Muslim)
