Usury (Riba)

Those who consume interest¹ cannot stand [on the Day of Resurrection] except as one stands who is being beaten by Satan into insanity. That is because they say, "Trade is [just] like interest." But Allāh has permitted trade and has forbidden interest. So whoever has received an admonition from his Lord and desists may have what is past, and his affair rests with Allāh. But whoever returns [to dealing in interest or usury] - those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.

Allāh destroys interest and gives increase for charities. And Allāh does not like every sinning disbeliever.

O you who have believed, fear Allāh and give up what remains [due to you] of interest, if you should be believers.

And if you do not, then be informed of a war [against you] from Allāh and His Messenger. But if you repent, you may have your principal - [thus] you do no wrong, nor are you wronged.

And if someone is in hardship, then [let there be] postponement until [a time of] ease. But if you give [from your right as] charity, then it is better for you, if you only knew.

O you who have believed, do not consume usury, doubled and multiplied, but fear Allāh that you may be successful.

And [for] their taking of usury while they had been forbidden from it, and their consuming of the people's wealth unjustly. And We have prepared for the disbelievers among them a painful punishment.

And whatever you give for interest [i.e., advantage] to increase within the wealth of people¹ will not increase with Allāh. But what you give in zakāh,² desiring the face [i.e., approval] of Allāh - those are the multipliers.³
