Is a small amount of riba (usury or interest) permissible by analogy to the dispensation for a small amount of silk?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Benefits from the explanation of the book *Iqtida' al-Sirat al-Mustaqim li-Mukhalafat Ahl al-Jahim* by Ibn Taymiyyah. The specific exception made for a small amount of silk may be used by some people to argue for a specific exception for a small amount of riba?

Answer:
No, this matter and that matter: no amount of riba is permissible, neither small nor large. As for silk, it is permissible for women and permissible for men in cases of need, but riba is not permissible under any circumstances.
