Ruling on getting back a loan from interest-based money
Question: 20807
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
It may be permissible, because the lender is not a party to the interest-based transaction. But he should try to advise both parties.
