The answer

It is permissible to borrow from an Islamic bank if it offers interest-free loans (qard hassan). There is also no objection to engaging with it in a Murabaha to the Purchase Orderer (Murabaha lil-amir bi al-shira') transaction to obtain cash (Tawarruq). The statement that Islamic and usurious banks are the same is incorrect. Islamic banks are a legitimate alternative, provided they adhere to the rulings of Islamic law and the directives of Shariah supervision.
