If the bank is usurious, the excess interest beyond the principal amount must be disposed of by spending it on the welfare of Muslims, such as aiding the poor and needy, repairing roads, and building hospitals. It is not permissible to give it to someone who would use it for Hajj as long as there are those in need of food, shelter, and similar necessities.
