Usury (riba in Arabic) is condemned and prohibited in the strongest terms in Quran. It is explicitly forbidden in Quran. Quran says (meaning translation): " Those who usury will not stand except as stands one whom the Satan by his touch has driven to madness. That is because they say trade is like usury, but God (ALLAH) has permitted trade and forbidden usury.... God (ALLAH) will deprive Usury of all blessing but will give increase for deeds of charity...".
So, Muslims do not do Usury (Riba):
- first as obedience to God commands, and
- second because by usury you exploit the need of others to money and instead of helping them by charity or giving loan at no profit you gain more money out of them.
