The woman must repent from consuming usury and withdraw her capital from the usurious bank. It is permissible for her to give the of her wealth to her husband if he is poor and unable to afford medical treatment costs. It is also permissible for her to give the usurious interest, which she wishes to dispose of, to her husband to cover his treatment expenses, as the proper use for this interest is for the benefit of Muslims or the poor and needy.
