What is the ruling on taking a loan with interest from a company, knowing that the company does not have liquidity and takes the amount from a bank, then returns the amount to the bank at the same value while the company takes the interest?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is not permissible to take a loan from a company if it entails usurious interest for the bank, because this is usury, which Allah has forbidden and for which He has declared war on its perpetrator. One must desist from this transaction and seek a goodly loan without interest. If that is not possible, then one should be patient until Allah facilitates the matter, for whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out and provide for him from where he does not expect.
