Prohibition of Riba:

Both the charging and receiving of interest is strictly forbidden. This is

commonly known as Riba.

Riba literally means increase, increase, addition, expansion or growth. It is a

typical increase or growth, which has been prohibited by islam.

Riba technically refers to the premium that must be paid by the borrower to the
lender along with the principle amount as a condition for the loan. In this case
riba obviously means interest.

Islam made a clear distinction between trade and riba . Tarding is encouraged
but riba is prohibited.
