The ruling on lending wheat with the condition of an increase at harvest
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And it is not shirk (associating partners with Allah) if a man gives another man or a different type of grain in exchange for wheat.
The Shaykh:
If he gives.
The questioner:
If a man gives another man one hundred ardeb of wheat before the harvest, on the condition that he will give him one hundred and twenty ardeb at the time of the harvest, it is not permissible.
The Shaykh:
Is it riba (usury or interest) if he lends him one hundred ardeb of wheat until the harvest, on the condition that he returns to him one hundred and ten ardeb? This is riba. As for a loan, we said that a stipulated increase is not permissible; a stipulated increase is not permissible because this is riba. Yes.
