Is the one who works in a bank cursed?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the one who works in a bank cursed?

Answer:
This includes the one who consumes riba (usury or interest), the one who feeds it to him, the scribe, and the witness. The scribe and the witness are included because they assist in falsehood. Allah says:
but do not cooperate in sin and aggressionوَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ
[Al-Ma'idah: 2]. This applies to the other employees as well.
Q: Is this one of the major sins?
The Shaykh: Yes, it is one of the major sins. The sins for which the perpetrator is cursed are major sins. We ask Allah for well-being.
