ولا تعاونوا على الإثم والعدوان
And do not help each other in sin and aggression.
The Hadeeth says regarding those people who are involved in usury:
عن جابر قال لعن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم آكل الربا وموكله وكاتبه وشاهديه وقال هم سواء.
(رواه مسلم)
Hazarat Jabir (Radhiyallahu Anhu) narrates that Nabi (Sallahu ‘Alaihi Wasallam) cursed those who are involved in usury; whether it is the person who is giving usury, receiving it, writing the transaction or witnessing it.
