Ribā refers to financial contracts based on interest, which are prohibited under Islamic doctrine. Islamic law, the Shari'a, prohibits the charging and payment of interest. Muslims are not permitted to charge or pay interest, according to the Qur'an and Sunnah. Accordingly, a Muslim cannot take out or grant interest-bearing loans or mortgages.
