Credit cards forbidden, a Canadian priest named Khalid Abdul-Hamid Syed has issued a fatwa that forbids credit card, even though people who use these credit cards can pay off credit card bills every month. “I conclude that it contains usury credit card … which is forbidden in Islam, so it should not be used,” said Imam is delivered through a mass email to members of the main mosque in the city of Canada. Islam has prohibited interest, for the same reason also condemned usury in other religions: he can sink the debtor, even whole economies, such as last years which occurred in the U.S.. “The fatwa is illegitimate to protect Muslims from falling from a lot of debt,” the priest said in an interview with the media. “Flowers bank may devalue people,” added Ismail Barreh, an MBA student at the University of Ottawa who sat in the interview. “They are in need of money, and then you can take advantage of them.” There are two schools of thought about credit cards among Islamic scholars. Some opinions meperbolehkan long as no interest earned, and on condition that bills must be paid in full. Another Sebagain forbid, quoting one of the earliest scholars of religious references, Ibn Mas’ud: “Allah has cursed those who consume Riba [usury or interest], who gave it to someone else, who recorded it and people who become witnesses …. All the same in exposed sin of usury. ” The group that believes the credit card is forbidden states that anyone who signed a contract to get a credit card then he must be “prepared to pay interest, so he agreed to deal with interest / usury.” Fatwa Haram credit cards issued by Imam Khaled Abdul-Hamid Syed began when there was a young Muslim woman from the city of Ottawa who heard a Saudi television broadcast stating that the credit card of any nature is prohibited and haram, even though there is no interest from credit cards, so he wrote a question to the priest for the clarification. The young woman was asked “Did you tell me to throw my credit card? I only have one credit card for emergencies and when I travel … Can you give me some advice, what should I do … or whether there is dried using a credit card if you are experiencing an emergency situation? ” Imam Syed said in a mass email that he personally only allow debit cards, where the card owner does have money in savings. Cardholders can only spend a number of items in accordance with the amount of money which he kept, and no interest transactions that occurred
