قَالَ الله تَعَالىٰ: {ٱلَّذِينَ يَأكُلُونَ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْ لَا يَقُومُونَ إِلَّا كَمَا يَقُومُ ٱلَّذِي يَتَخَبَّطُهُ ٱلشَّيطَٰنُ مِنَ ٱلمَسِّ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُم قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّمَا ٱلبَيعُ مِثلُ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْۗ وَأَحَلَّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلبَيعَ وَحَرَّمَ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْ فَمَن جَآءَهُۥ مَوعِظَة مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ فَٱنتَهَىٰ فَلَهُۥ مَا سَلَفَ وَأَمرُهُۥٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَمَن عَادَ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ هُم فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ * يَمحَقُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْ} إلىٰ قوله: {يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَذَرُواْ مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ ٱلرِّبَوٰٓاْ} [البقرة: 275 ــ 278].
Allah Almighty says: {Those who consume usury will not stand [on the Day of Resurrection] except like those being beaten by Satan. That is because they say, “Trade is just like usury.” But Allah has permitted trade and forbidden usury. Whoever desists because of receiving admonition from his Lord may keep his past gains, and his case is left to Allah. But whoever returns to it, they are the people of the Fire; they will abide therein forever. Allah destroys usury} To the verse that says: {O you who believe, fear Allah and give up usury that is still due} [Surat al-Baqarah: 275-278]
