A Note on the Use of Credit Cards:
As an Islamic organization that is trying to spread the principles of Qur'aan and Sunnah, we must remind our customers that although accepting credit card payments is allowed for Muslim businesses because there is no interest, or Riba, charged during the transaction, the use of credit cards by Muslim cardholders is Haraam. This is because the cardholder has signed an agreement with the credit card company to pay interest and late fees (both forms of Riba) under certain circumstances. This status of being Haraam does not change even if interest or late fees are never actually paid. This is based on the following Sahih Hadith...
​
Jaber (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) cursed the one who consumes riba (i.e., asks for or uses interest) and the one who pays it, the one who writes it down and the two who witness it, and he said: they are all the same. (Sahih Muslim)
​
Thus, signing a contract agreeing to pay interest is as Haraam as actually paying it. Allah emphasizes the importance of avoiding Riba in the Qur'aan...
​
"O you who have believed, fear Allah and give up what remains [due to you] of interest if you should be believers. And if you do not, then be informed of a war [against you] from Allah and His Messenger. But if you repent, you may have your principal - [thus] you do no wrong, nor are you wronged." (Qur'aan 2:278-279)
​
If you have credit cards, please consider replacing them with debit cards. Debit cards withdraw directly from a bank account like cash or checks and are allowable for Muslims wanting to make online purchases in a Halaal way (as long as they do not charge overdraft or late fees, which are forms of Riba). ​
