Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: "Those who consume riba (usury or interest) will not stand," and the danger of riba

Question:
I move on to another questioner via the program's phone line. He says: Regarding the saying of Allah the Exalted . He says: Some people hold that it is not called riba, but rather profit. What is the ruling on this statement? And how do you view the danger of riba to the Muslim's creed?

Answer:
Riba is the most abhorrent of earnings. Allah and His Messenger have forbidden it, and the Muslims have reached consensus on its prohibition. Therefore, riba is forbidden, severely forbidden, whether it comes from banks, individuals, or companies. Riba is a corruption because the one who takes riba takes and does not give, while the one who gives charity gives and does not take. There is a great difference between them: this one is a doer of good, and that one is a doer of evil. For this reason, He said that He destroys its blessing. Even if the wealth of the world were to gather in his possession from riba, its blessing would be destroyed; its owner would not benefit from it. If he gave charity from it, it would not be accepted from him, and his supplication would not be answered as long as he persists in consuming riba.
Riba is the most forbidden of earnings in terms of prohibition, sin, and ugly effects, because it is taking from people's wealth without right. When people are raised from their graves, they will rise quickly and walk to the gathering place, except for the one who consumed riba. He will be heavy in his belly; he will rise and fall, rise and fall, and be unable to walk. This is a disgrace for him and a punishment for him, may Allah protect us. Riba makes his belly heavy so that he cannot walk with the people; rather, he rises and falls and stumbles. Yes.
