Is it permissible to take a loan to buy a car in order to continue receiving a monthly payment from the pharmaceutical company, knowing that the company stipulates the purchase of a car for a specific amount that is commensurate with the transferred amount?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Fatwa Summary: It is not permissible to resort to a usurious loan to purchase a car and benefit from a company grant, as borrowing with usury is unanimously prohibited. Both the one who consumes usury and the one who feeds it are threatened with a curse. "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed the one who consumes usury, the one who feeds it, its scribe, and its two witnesses, and he said: 'They are all alike.'" Every loan that stipulates an increase is forbidden without dispute.
