The answer

The sacred texts warn and deter against leniency in taking on debt, except for a recognized need, lest people's money be lost. If a Muslim needs debt, they should seek only what is necessary and pursue legitimate means to obtain it, including the permissible Tawarruq according to the majority of scholars. Tawarruq involves purchasing a commodity for more than its value to sell it and obtain money. If the bank adheres to the -compliant regulations in Tawarruq, then there is no objection to dealing with it.
