Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the authenticity of this hadith:
Every loan that brings benefit is ribaكل قرض جر نفعًا فهو ربا
?

Answer:
The hadith is weak, but its meaning is correct according to the scholars if the loan is conditioned to bring benefit to the lender. However, if it is a simple loan without any condition of benefit for the lender, it is recommended and carries great virtue; because it involves cooperation in good and alleviating the distress of those in distress.
