Answered by SunniPath Answer Service Team
Could you please state why taking interest is haram, i mean the logical way to look at this question whithout quoting the Noble Quran (although it suffices and is evident enough that the Quran has made Interest haram). i.e. It dosent solve the problems of the world at large its only to increase the wealth of a few causing the world’s poverty to go on the increase etc.
