![]() | 275. Those who devour interest shall not stand on the Day of judgement, but like the standing of one whom the evil spirit has by touching made mad. This is because they said 'The trade too is like interest,' and Allah made trade lawful and made interest unlawful. So he, who received admonition from his Lord and refrained, then whatever he took before is lawful to him, and his affair is with Allah. And now whoever shall commit such. Fault, they are men of hell, they will live therein for longer period. 276. Allah destroys interest and increases charity and Allah loves not any ungrateful big sinner. 277. No doubt, those who accepted faith and did good deeds and established prayer and paid the Zakat, (poor-due) their reward is with their Lord and there is neither any fear nor any grief to them. 278. O believers! Fear Allah and leave what remains of interest if you are Muslims. 279. But if you do not do like this, then be sure of war from Allah and the Messenger of Allah. And if you repent then take your principal sums, neither you wrong any one nor be wronged yourselves. 280. And if the debtor is a man in hardship then give him time till it is easy, and to remit the debt fully is better for you if you know. 281. And fear the day in which you shall be made to return to Allah and shall every soul be paid in full what it has earned and they shall not be wronged. |
