Details regarding the disposal of bank interest money?

Taking interest, giving interest, and witnessing interest is a cause of curse.

"The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) cursed the one who consumes Riba (interest), the one who pays it, the one who writes it down, and its two witnesses, and he said: They are all equal."

However, if a person keeps their permissible (Halal) earnings in a bank for the purpose of safekeeping, then the interest amount received on it should not be left (in the bank); after taking it, it is obligatory to spend it in its proper avenues, and its avenues are three: (1) It should be given in unjust (non-obligatory) taxes. (2) It should be distributed among poor Muslims without the intention of reward. (3) It should be spent on public welfare works. But out of these three avenues, the first two are agreed upon (by consensus), and the third avenue has a difference of opinion (Mukhtalaf Fih), and acting upon what is agreed upon is better than what is disputed.

The Chaudhry's Sacrifice and Love for Religious Scholars

The Chaudhry's Sacrifice and Love for Religious Scholars

...A Chaudhry used to dedicate a whole year's supply of wheat for the students of a madrasa. A mischievous person, out of enmity and hatred towards the Maulana Sahib, expressed his ill feelings in such a way that while searching for the address, he reached the Chaudhry's house and said: "Chaudhry Sahib! Go to the madrasa and find out what misappropriations are happening in the name of the students! Half of the wheat goes to the madrasa... and half to the Moulvi Sahib's house..." May Allah have mercy on the Chaudhry's grave where that anonymous mujahid is sleeping... Chaudhry stood up... embraced that mischievous person, thanked him, and said, "My friend, why didn't you come earlier? By telling me this, you have helped me. From today onwards, one year's worth of wheat for Maulana's house and a separate year's worth of wheat for the madrasa..." The last words spoken by the Chaudhry deserve to be written in gold. He said: "Listen! Feeding the students is also a great thing, but for me, it is a matter of pride that the Muhaddith (hadith scholar) of the time eats my wheat, whose entire day is spent reading and teaching 'Qalallah' (Allah said) and 'Qala Rasulullah' (The Messenger of Allah said)... I have no doubt about its reward." Allah-hu-Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) _____________________________________ Quoted. Selection: Islamic Tube Pro App
