Al-Baqarah 2: 276–8


Hence, he who receives this admonition from his Lord, and then gives up (dealing in interest), may keep his previous gains, and it will be for Allah to judge him.99 As for those who revert to it, they are the people of the Fire, and in it shall they abide. (276) Allah deprives interest of all blessing, whereas He blesses charity with growth. Allah loves none who is ungrateful and persists in sin. (277) Truly the reward of those who believe and do righteous deeds and establish Prayer and pay Zakah is with their Lord; they have no reason to entertain any fear or grief.

(278) Believers! Have fear of Allah and give up all out- standing interest if you do truly believe. ▶

99 What is said here is not that man will be pardoned by God for the interest charged in the past, but that it is for God to judge him. The expression: “may keep his previous gain” does not signify absolute pardon from God for the interest one has realized, rather it points to the legal concession that has been made. It only means that no legal claim will be made against a person for the interest he had charged in the past.
