One ustad was telling me that the money from interest cannot be eaten at all,either by us or another person. Could you please explain differences of opinion between syafii,and hanafi
It is necessary to give interest monies to someone who is eligible for Zakaat without any intention of reward. If you are not eligible for Zakaat, you may not use the interest.
However, the person that may receive Zakaat may accept the amount and consume from it.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
