The Difference Between One Who Permits Consensus Riba and Disputed Riba

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a difference between one who permits riba (usury or interest) in general, or one who permits certain riba transactions? Is there a difference between them?

Answer:
As for the riba whose prohibition is agreed upon, yes, this ends in his apostasy. As for the riba in which there is disagreement—whether it is riba or not—there are transactions in which scholars have differed on whether they are riba or do not fall under riba. So, one does not declare the one who permits them to be a disbeliever; rather, it is said that he is mistaken.
