Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the difference between a loan and riba al-nasi'ah (usury of deferment), given that both involve a term without an increase? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
Yes, this is a contract, a contract between the two parties. A loan is a gift; a loan is a facilitation for the giver. The intention is not investment, and the intention is not to take advantage of the needy. Yes.
