The Worldly Punishment for the Consumer of Riba

Question:
And Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned the punishment in the Hereafter for submission, so if there is no worldly punishment, one does not fall into the upbringing of the Hereafter, by analogy with zina, sorcery, and other major sins.

Answer:
Hudud are not established by analogy; hudud are not established by analogy. Hudud are based on specific texts. Allah did not mention a hadd for riba in this world, but ta'zir is applied. For crimes that do not have a specified hadd, ta'zir is applied to them. As for establishing a hadd by analogy, no one holds this view. Please, O Shaykh. The warning in the Hereafter is sufficient for him, and what befalls him in this world of setbacks, calamities, and humiliation is sufficient. You will find the one who consumes riba to be the most humiliated of people and the most hated of people among people. You will find him despised. This is sufficient for him. You will find the one who gives charity and does good to be loved by people, with a good reputation. There is a difference between the one who gives charity and the one who consumes riba. Yes, this is a worldly punishment.
