Answered by Miscellaneous

In 1960, I had borrowed R 40.00 from someone and subsequently forgot about it. How much do I repay now, R 40.00 or the present face-value?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

One will have to repay R 40.00. Anything more will be interest, which is prohibited.
