It is narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said:
“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ cursed the one who accepts Ar-Riba (usury) and the one who pays it.”
A narration adds: and the one who records it, and the two persons who stand witness to it.
This shows the profound unlawfulness of Al-Riba (interest), where even cooperation is an invitation to Allah’s curse and wrath.
Avoiding Riba is a huge test (fitnah) for believers, especially when the fleeting glamor of this world can often be acquired through it.
