Money got by some Arabs after big racket (5)
I believe the answer is:
dinar
'money' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'by some arabs after big racket' is the wordplay.
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'some' says to take the initial letters.
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'big' becomes 'r' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'racket' becomes 'din' (I've seen this before).
The initial letter of 'arabs' is 'a'.
'a'+'r'='ar'
'ar' put after 'din' is 'DINAR'.
'got' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dinar that I've seen before include "Currency of several Arab countries" , "Drain (anag.)" , "money" , "Currency of Algeria, Tunisia, Kuwait etc" , "Yugoslav currency" .)
