Is credit card permissible in isslam?
I'm asking that because with it we use money that i not our, we get it by credit from the bank and pay it later, and with it we are tempted to buy and buy, loosing control over our accounts.

In general, there is a 55 day interest-free period on credit cards. So, as long as you avoid paying interest I don't see the problem. HOWEVER, I would not recommend spending money you don't have - that will lead to an accumulation of debt - no good!:heated:

its okay if you pay it before you have to pay the interest....but the temptations are still there...

Just imagine how many ppl are declared bankrupt just because of the credit card.
