Is interest haraam ? I earn interest on my savings accounts and wanted to know if it was haraam even though I donate every dime of it to needy people.
It absolutely makes no sense to put your dump your savings into a checking account which the bank will use to make profits on by loaning it out. Since that is the case, aren’t the bank and I business partners and so the interest is the profit made from my money ?

good poit, however interest is xaraam, but i still see many muslims Taking out a mortgage, they say that they are investing it in thier future lives and that of their kids....Islamic banks dont charge u interest directly but do so in other ways... all u gota look is the difference in their costs and that of Barclays, nationwide and etc

interest aka riba is xaram but is hard to avoid it where we live in the west..i think most of us have taken interest one way or the other..
