The Meaning of the Hadith: The First Thing I Will Place Under My Feet Is the Riba of My Uncle al-Abbas

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh. Yes. He says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) warned against riba (usury or interest) and said, "The first thing I will place under my feet is the riba of excess."

Answer:
No, he did not say "riba of excess." He said
The first thing I will place under my feet is the riba of my uncle al-Abbasأول ما أضع تحت قدمي ربا عمي العباس
This means that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) invalidated the riba of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance (jahiliyyah), invalidating it completely with no return to it. Yes.
