The answer

The transaction mentioned in the question is an explicit usurious contract that is impermissible to undertake, because it is a loan with interest. It has been authentically narrated from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that he said: "Allah has cursed the one who consumes usury, the one who feeds it, its scribe, and its two witnesses." There is no difference between taking equipment or cash with interest; all of it is forbidden usury. Usury obliterates the blessing of sustenance, for Allah the Almighty says: "Allah destroys interest and gives increase for charities."
