Question:
Is it permissible to lend to a non-Muslim who has a treaty or to one who does not?
Answer:
A Muslim is not to be lent out, as mentioned previously; a Muslim slave is not to be lent out. However, it is permissible to lend an item of wealth that one can benefit from, provided it is not a weapon. It is not a weapon; rather, the person is a treaty-holder, a dhimmi (a non-Muslim under Muslim protection), or a musta'min (a non-Muslim granted safe conduct). In that case, items are lent for which there is no religious prohibition in lending them. Yes.
