What must a person do who borrowed money from a credit card without interest, and was unable to repay the amount before the specified deadline (the end of Ramadan), and he will leave the country permanently, knowing that his friends told him that the bank is usurious and deals with Israel, and that he only has an amount to repay the debt that he needs to buy a car upon his return to his country?
