usury is forbidden in the Bible


In the Old Testament

They should lend to their brothers without interest, but You can lend at interest abroad


Deuteronomy 23:20 “ 20 You may charge a foreigner interest, but not a fellow Israelite, so that the Lord your God may bless you in everything you put your hand to in the land you are entering to possess.


In the New Testament
The Christian position on usury has changed today. Many churches applied its lawfulness to the circumstances of the time despite general texts forbidding it in the Bible.

Jesus neither paid nor received usurious interest, in accordance with the Old Testament prohibition against it (Exodus 22:25). Usurious interest is forbidden in the Old Testament and in the Koran, as it was forbidden in the religion of Jesus. The economic system of most Christian countries today, however, is based on usurious interest.

the wealthy, founders of companies, banks, great merchants, insurance companies, and even countries large and small were involved in lending with interest, in pursuit of the production and development of wealth. In this regard, various systems and laws were put in place to manage money and lend it, and to collect certain interest on loans, and most people began to deal with banks and deposit their money in banks in exchange for certain interest. that this kind of usury or interest is not forbidden in the Church

God forbade usury in the Quran, as I said, whether the usury be great or small


O you who have believed, do not consume usury, doubled and multiplied, but fear Allah that you may be successful.
(3:130 Quran)

God has forbidden interest if the debtor is in arrears then the creditor should not force the debtor to pay interest


On the other hand, we see the tolerance of Islam in forbidding dealing with usury in all its shapes and forms with all human beings

Islam prohibits others from infringing on their rights, even if they are not in the religion of Islam.

The essence of the call of Prophet Muhammad


The basis of the call of the noble Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) may be summed up as the aim to build sound beliefs on a sound textual and rational foundation. It is a call to believe in Allah and affirm His oneness in terms of His divinity and lordship. None is deserving of worship except one God, namely Allah, may He be glorified, for He is the Lord, Creator and Sovereign of this universe, Who controls it and disposes of its affairs; He governs it by His command, and is the One Who possesses the power to cause harm or bring benefit, and Who controls the provision of all creatures – and no one has any share of that with Him. Nothing is equal or like unto Him, so He, may He be glorified, is far above having any partners, rivals, peers or equals.

Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)): ‘He is Allah, (the) One. ‘Allah-us-Samad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks). ‘He begets not, nor was He begotten; ‘And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him’” [al-Ikhlas 112:1-4]

“Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)): ‘I am only a man like you. It has been inspired to me that your Ilah (God) is One Ilah (God i.e. Allah). So whoever hopes for the Meeting with his Lord, let him work righteousness and associate none as a partner in the worship of his Lord '' [al-Kahf 18:110].

The call of the noble Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was a call to destroy shirk of all kinds and to rid the two races (of mankind and the jinn) of everything that was worshipped on a basis of falsehood. So there is to be no worship of rocks, stars and graves, or of wealth, whims and desires, or the tyrannical rulers of the earth.

Rather it is a call that came to liberate humanity from the worship of other people and to bring them forth from the humiliation of idolatry and the oppression of tyrants, and to free them from the captivity of whims and desires.

This blessed call is regarded as a continuation and affirmation of the previous divinely revealed messages that called to belief in the oneness of Allah. Therefore Islam called people to believe in all the messengers and prophets, and to respect them and venerate them, and to believe in the Books that were revealed to them. A call such as this is undoubtedly true. Foretelling of Islam


The Books of the prophets foretold the coming of Islam and the Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). The Noble Quran tells us of the clear foretelling of the Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) in the Torah and Gospel, including cases where his name and description are clearly mentioned.

Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):




Those who follow the Messenger, the Prophet who can neither read nor write (i.e. Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)) whom they find written with them in the Taurat (Torah) (Deut, xviii, 15) and the Injeel (Gospel) (John xiv, 16), - he commands them for Al-Ma’ruf (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained); and forbids them from Al-Munkar (i.e. disbelief, polytheism of all kinds, and all that Islam has forbidden); he allows them as lawful At-Tayyibat [1], then produce a Surah (chapter) of the like thereof and call your witnesses (supporters and helpers) besides Allah, if you are truthful” [al-Baqarah 2:23].

With regard to the nature of the miracle with which the Quran challenged them , the scholars differed concerning that. There are several views, the most likely of which to be correct is what al-Alusi said:

“The Quran as a whole, and parts of it, even the shortest surah of it, is a miracle in terms of its composition and eloquence, and its speaking of the unseen, and its harmony with reason and its precise meanings. All these aspects may appear in one verse, or some of them may not be present, such as telling of the unseen. There is no harm in that and no flaw, because what is there is sufficient.” (Ruh al-Ma‘ani (1/29)

All the proofs mentioned above in general terms may be discussed in much more detail, but we do not have room to do so here. It is more appropriate to read about that in specialised books. Every Muslim is advised to seek knowledge of the Quran and Sunnah, and to study the books of correct ‘aqidah, and to learn about his religion so that he can be a good Muslim and worship his Lord with understanding.

There are many ways to come to the conclusion that Islam is the Truth, Alhamdulillah.

How did Muhammad SAW know where the lowest point of land on earth is without any modern satellites? That every living thing is made out of water? That the universe is not static, but is actually expanding? That the universe was once a mass and then it split apart. That the pharaoh was actually called the king of Egypt during the time of the prophet Yusuf (AS) (Quran corrects the Bible here)? That there are waves at the bottom of the ocean? That the bottom of the ocean is completely dark? That there are two body’s of water with a barrier that don’t mix? That mountains are like pegs, and they stabilize the earth? That the Romans will beat the Persians again within 3 to 9 years after their defeat, when the odds were so low? The perfect description of the human embryo (if Muhammad SAW would’ve copied from the library of Alexandria, he SAW would have gotten the description wrong), and that lies are formed in the front part of the brain. There are so many MORE miracles than already stated, which you can find in the Quran.

Do you think this information could have been known by the beloved Muhammad SAW, who SAW lived in the dessert 1400 hundred years ago, and who SAW couldn’t read nor write?

Poets at that time were amazed at the linguistic excellence of the Quran: they had never seen anything so profound and mesmerizing. All of this coming from a man, Muhammad SAW, who SAW could not read nor write.

How could this book have 0 contradictions and mistakes with such ‘bold’ claims, if it had not been from any other than God? Allah SWT challenges us to come up with even a verse like the Quran.

We didnt even speak about all the predictions of the Prophet SAW that all came true with ZERO mistakes.

Furthermore, Muhammad SAW split the moon by the permission of Allah SWT. This event has multiple eye witnesses from different places. These also include non-Muslims. Here’s a detailed video about the event:

Whoever believes in God alone (the Father) and then disbelieves and worships other than Him, such as idols, planets, or Christ, will enter Hell, God willing.

Pleasing God brings peace, a sense of true happiness, and paradise in the afterlife.

And forget everything that could bother you in life.

Remember that you are with God now, and He deserves your full attention. Maintain good morals. Never lie, be kind to those around you, be dutiful to your parents, keep your promises, always forgive, and be kind. You will find yourself constantly remembering God in your thoughts and actions.
