What is the ruling on the salary of a foreign language translator in a usurious bank?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not permissible to work as a translator for riba-based transactions with foreign banks. The salary received from such work is unlawful (haram) because it involves cooperation in sin and transgression, which Allah has forbidden in His saying: "And cooperate not in sin and aggression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty."
