Because Islam isn't as centralized as Christianity, also usually Muslims take their faith
more seriously than European or american Christians or Jews. Additionally, earning
interest from parked money is considered sinful in Islam, (should be handled like this
in the west too because it is a very good thing) that makes having large amounts of
money less valuable to Imams. The Catholic Church also does not have their largest
share of wealth in money but in owned land, immobilia and objects.

According to Islamic rules and traditions, mosques and their clerics cannot seek any
monetary offerings from Muslims who come to offer namaz at mosques. There is no
donation box or platter going around in mosques. So, mosques do not have this
regular source of funds, which churches do. So, they do not grow rich in this way, and
do not have the mounds of money like Christian churches. Funding for mosques is
acquired in various other ways, which usually do not result in treasure hoards. Lots of
Muslim clerics earn a living through fees for performing marriage ceremony, etc.

Muslims can’t build anything of substance, so they take Christian churches, like the
1500 year old Hagia Sophia (an enormous architectural marvel in Istanbul, Turkey, that
was originally built as a Christian basilica around 500) and convert it to grotesque
Mosques, training centers for Terrorists. The money comes from Wahhabi Islam
(Sauds) and other very strict Islamic endevours. Thye have tons of it, make no mistake.
