The answer

Borrowing money with usurious interest is among the great prohibitions and major sins. It is not permissible to undertake it to facilitate marriage. Allah says: "And whoever fears Allah – He will make for him a way out." One should seek Allah's help, be patient, and practice economy to facilitate matters.
