What is the ruling on continuing to operate a printing shop for documents, given the increasing demand for printing papers related to usurious transactions, and how can one reconcile not assisting in sin with ensuring the project's continuity?
It is not permissible to print papers related to usurious transactions or those that assist in them, because that constitutes aiding in sin. One must apologize for printing them in a way that does not cause harm, such as saying: "The machine is broken," intending that it is broken from printing what is not permissible, and this is one of the permissible evasions. One must advise the person and remind them of the prohibition of usurious transactions, if no harm is feared.
