The answer

If the transaction with the Islamic bank for purchasing a car is permissible as a Murabaha (cost-plus financing) sale, then there is no harm in carrying it out, even if you are not compelled to, for Allah Almighty says: "And Allah has permitted trade." However, if the transaction is forbidden, such as an interest-bearing loan or stipulating an increase upon late payment, then it is not permissible for you to enter into it, because you are not in a state of necessity. What is forbidden is not permissible to commit except out of dire necessity, as Allah Almighty says: "And He has explained to you in detail what He has forbidden you, except that to which you are compelled."
