Sura 2 Al-Baqarah (The Cow), ayah 275

  1. الَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ الرِّبَا لَا يَقُومُونَ إِلَّا كَمَا يَقُومُ الَّذِي يَتَخَبَّطُهُ الشَّيْطَانُ مِنَ الْمَسِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا إِنَّمَا الْبَيْعُ مِثْلُ الرِّبَا ۗ وَأَحَلَّ اللَّهُ الْبَيْعَ وَحَرَّمَ الرِّبَا ۚ فَمَنْ جَاءَهُ مَوْعِظَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّهِ فَانْتَهَىٰ فَلَهُ مَا سَلَفَ وَأَمْرُهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ وَمَنْ عَادَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ ۖ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ

    Translation by words

    ٱلَّذِينَ
    Those who
    يَأْكُلُونَ
    consume
    ٱلرِّبَوٰا۟
    [the] usury
    لَا
    not
    يَقُومُونَ
    they can stand
    إِلَّا
    except
    كَمَا
    like
    يَقُومُ
    stands
    ٱلَّذِى
    the one who,
    يَتَخَبَّطُهُ
    confounds him
    ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ
    the Shaitaan
    مِنَ
    with
    ٱلْمَسِّ
    (his) touch.
    ذَٰلِكَ
    That
    بِأَنَّهُمْ
    (is) because they
    قَالُوٓا۟
    say,
    إِنَّمَا
    "Only
    ٱلْبَيْعُ
    the trade
    مِثْلُ
    (is) like
    ٱلرِّبَوٰا۟
    [the] usury."
    وَأَحَلَّ
    While has permitted
    ٱللَّهُ
    Allah
    ٱلْبَيْعَ
    [the] trade
    وَحَرَّمَ
    but (has) forbidden
    ٱلرِّبَوٰا۟
    [the] usury.
    فَمَن
    Then whoever -
    جَآءَهُۥ
    comes to him
    مَوْعِظَةٌ
    (the) admonition
    مِّن
    from
    رَّبِّهِۦ
    His Lord
    فَٱنتَهَىٰ
    and he refrained,
    فَلَهُۥ
    then for him
    مَا
    what
    سَلَفَ
    (has) passed,
    وَأَمْرُهُۥٓ
    and his case
    إِلَى
    (is) with
    ٱللَّهِ
    Allah,
    وَمَنْ
    and whoever
    عَادَ
    repeated
    فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ
    then those
    أَصْحَٰبُ
    (are the) companions
    ٱلنَّارِ
    (of) the Fire,
    هُمْ
    they
    فِيهَا
    in it
    خَٰلِدُونَ
    will abide forever.

    Those who consume interest cannot stand (on the Day of Resurrection) except as one stands who is being beaten by Satan into insanity. That is because they say, "Trade is (just) like interest." But Allah has permitted trade and has forbidden interest. So whoever has received an admonition from his Lord and desists may have what is past, and his affair rests with Allah. But whoever returns to (dealing in interest or usury) - those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.
