Is it permissible to borrow from the bank with interest to purchase an electrical appliance when money is not available?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Borrowing with interest is forbidden usury, and it is not permissible except in cases of necessity or a need that is equivalent to it. What has been mentioned does not reach the level of necessity that permits borrowing with usury. Your duty is to repent to Allah.
