Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is this hadith established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said, "The least of riba is as if a man were to have intercourse with his mother"?
Answer:
Yes, it was reported, but I do not know about its chain of narration. Or rather, it was reported: "The least of riba is as if a man were to marry his mother. Riba has seventy and two degrees, the least of which is as if a man were to marry his mother." Allah knows best. Yes.
