The answer

Borrowing from a bank with interest is forbidden by Islamic law and is not permissible except in cases of recognized necessity. The company's need for capital to renew its production means does not constitute a necessity that permits what is forbidden. The company owners can resort to non-interest-based transactions, such as the Islamic Murabaha, which is offered by Islamic banks.
