This transaction is a forbidden usurious loan. Usury is not permissible except in cases of recognized necessity, which is a state of severe danger or hardship where harm to life, limb, honor, intellect, or wealth is feared. Lawful means are abundant for those who fear God, and God provides a way out for the pious and sustains them from where they do not expect.
