The answer

If the money deposited in a usurious bank is from the remaining rights of the father, it is an inheritance. It is impermissible to take the usurious increase; rather, it must be disposed of in charitable causes, unless there is a need. However, if the money is a gift or a grant from an institution, it is permissible to take it in full, because the sin falls upon the one who placed the money in the usurious bank.
