Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man lent another man a sum of money for a specific period, and then, when the money was returned, he added a small amount of five hundred riyals to it?
Answer:
Without a condition, you mean?
Q: Without a condition.
The Shaykh: There is no harm in it; the best of people are those who are best in repaying their debts. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would lend thirty and have it returned as sixty. If it is without a condition, there is no harm. The best of people are those who are best in repaying their debts.
Q: What falls under the ruling that any loan that yields a benefit is riba?
The Shaykh: No, that is the agreed-upon ruling regarding a condition.
