What is the ruling on working in agricultural service banks and depositing money in them?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not permissible to work in interest-based banks because it involves cooperation in sin and aggression. It is also not permissible to deposit money in them except out of necessity, even if the owner does not receive interest. However, if he does receive interest on it, this is an explicit usurious transaction. As for Islamic banks that adhere to Sharia rulings, there is no harm in depositing money in them.
