Tue 10 Jm1 1435 - 11 March 2014   I read some of your answers
about riba, and I found a contradiction that left me confused
about my situation. You said to the one who wants to rent out a
building to a riba-based bank that this is definitively haraam,
but you said to one who deposits his money in a riba-based bank
for fear that he may lose it that this is permissible, although
the latter will come under the heading of one who pays riba and
of cooperating in sin and transgression. I hope that you can
explain it to me, as I put my money in a riba-based bank because
there are no Islamic banks in my country and I am not sure
whether this money is halaal or haraam.  Praise be to Allaah.
Renting out a store or house to one who will use it for sinful
purposes is not permissible; that includes renting out a
building to a riba-based bank, because that is clearly helping
in sin and transgression, because the owner of the building
knows that the bank is renting this place in order to engage in
haraam transactions such
