Question:
He says: I asked a friend for a benevolent loan, on the condition that I would return it to him in easy installments. Is this considered part of the asking that is prohibited?
Answer:
Asking for a loan is not part of the asking [that is prohibited], because this money will be returned, so it is different from that. The loan is sought after, there is reward in it, and there is a reward for it. So there is no harm if he needs it, he asks for the loan itself from another person.
