What is the operative cause of riba in the six ribawi categories?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The types of riba.

The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : The six types of riba.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Gold for gold, silver for silver, ... ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, the issue—as is well known—involves scholarly disagreement between the jurists and the people of the Zahir school. The Zahiris stop at the six types mentioned in the hadith, whereas the jurists include others with them. They then differed regarding the basis and the operative cause of the ruling. What my soul found peace with and what opened my chest is what is in a narration in Sahih al-Bukhari:
And likewise, measuring by volume and weighing. وكذلك الكيل والوزن
, so whatever is measured by volume and whatever is weighed is included with the six types.
Yes.
Please proceed.
