Ruling on credit cards of the Faisal Islamic bank
Question: 105062
What is your opinion on the credit cards of the Faisal Islamic Bank?.
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
There is nothing wrong with
using a credit card if it is free of the following things that are forbidden
according to sharee’ah:
1-Stipulating payment of interest
or a penalty in the event of late payment.
2-Charging fees for issuing an
uncovered card that are greater than the actual costs involved.
3-Charging a percentage of money
withdrawn if the card is not covered. It is permissible to charge the actual
costs only; anything more than that is riba.
4-Buying gold, silver and other
currencies with it.
5-Seller adding a percentage that
the bank requires him to take from the purchaser, without the purchaser
being aware of that.

about the credit card offered by the Faisal Islamic Bank.
And Allaah knows best.
