Those who swallow usury will not rise, except as someone driven mad by Satan's touch. That is because they say, "Commerce is like usury." But God has permitted commerce, and has forbidden usury. Whoever, on receiving advice from his Lord, refrains, may keep his past earnings, and his case rests with God. But whoever resumes-these are the dwellers of the Fire, wherein they will abide forever.
Does the Qur'an forbid interest (riba)?
Key findingsEditorial
One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.
- 01 2:275 The longest statement in the set: those who devour usury, the comparison they make between trade and usury, and the answer that God has permitted trade and forbidden usury. In because the objection and the reply stand in the same verse.
- 02 2:276 God blights usury and makes almsgiving fruitful. The most divergent verse in THIS STUDY'S SET at 0.84 on the five-based measure - 56th of the 6,236 verses scored, not the highest in the corpus as the version signed when four translations were cleared stated. The five renderings say this in strikingly different words, Itani alone stating it as a judgement rather than an act - God condemns usury, and He blesses charities - and the study does not choose between them.
- 03 2:278 Addressed to believers: give up what remains due from usury, if ye are believers. In because it is the set's one direct instruction to stop.
- 04 3:130 Devour not usury, doubling it - Pickthall has doubling and quadrupling, Itani has compounded over and over. In because the five differ on whether the prohibition is qualified by the doubling or merely described by it.
- 05 4:161 Names taking usury among the things for which an earlier community was reproached, alongside devouring people's wealth by false pretences. In because it places the prohibition before this community.
- 06 30:39 Sets usury and alms directly against each other: what is put out to increase on (other) people's property has no increase with God, while what is given seeking God's face is doubled. In because it is the set's only statement of the contrast as a whole.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
These six treat usury and almsgiving as opposites, and they say so most plainly where they are set side by side.
30:39 puts them in one sentence: what is put out at usury to increase on (other) people's property has no increase with God, while what is given seeking God's face is doubled. 2:276 states the same contrast as an act - usury blighted, almsgiving made fruitful. Itani states it as a judgement instead: God condemns usury, and He blesses charities. That is a fifth rendering of the verse and it is not offered here as the reading of it.
2:275 is the longest, and it contains the objection as well as the answer: those who say trade is just like usury, and the reply that God has permitted trade and forbidden usury. 2:278 is the one direct instruction: give up what remains due from usury, if you are believers. 3:130 forbids devouring it doubled - Pickthall has doubling and quadrupling, Itani has compounded over and over - and the five do not agree on whether the doubling qualifies the prohibition or merely describes the practice. 4:161 names it among the things an earlier community was reproached for.
What none of these verses does is define the term. Where the line falls between trade, which is permitted in the same breath, and usury, which is forbidden, is not drawn inside them - and 2:276 is the most divergent verse in this study's set at 0.84, which is a fair warning about how much the English is carrying here. It is not the most divergent verse in the corpus. The version of this study signed on 2026-09-05 said that it was, and that was wrong when it was written rather than made wrong by a fifth translator: on the four-rendering measure it was signed over, 2:276 stood 71st of 6,227 scored verses, and on the five-rendering measure it stands 56th. Drawing that line is the interpretation layer, and it is blocked on rights.
Scope of this study
This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.
What this study does not answer, and which uncleared source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.
What this rests on
Opens with 2:275, widening across 6 passages in all.
Easy-read
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

Those who swallow usury cannot rise up save as he ariseth whom the devil hath prostrated by (his) touch. That is because they say: Trade is just like usury; whereas Allah permitteth trading and forbiddeth usury. He unto whom an admonition from his Lord cometh, and (he) refraineth (in obedience thereto), he shall keep (the profits of) that which is past, and his affair (henceforth) is with Allah. As for him who returneth (to usury) - Such are rightful owners of the Fire. They will abide therein
Those who devour usury shall not rise again, save as he riseth whom Satan hath paralysed with a touch; and that is because they say 'selling is only like usury,' but God has made selling lawful and usury unlawful; and he to whom the admonition from his Lord has come, if he desists, what has gone before is his: his matter is in God's hands. But whosoever returns (to usury) these are the fellows of the Fire, and they shall dwell therein for aye
They who swallow down usury, shall arise in the resurrection only as he ariseth whom Satan hath infected by his touch. This, for that they say, "Selling is only the like of usury:" and yet God hath allowed selling, and forbidden usury. He then who when this warning shall come to him from his Lord, abstaineth, shall have pardon for the past, and his lot shall be with God. But they who return to usury, shall be given over to the fire; therein shall they abide for ever
They who devour usury shall not arise from the dead, but as he ariseth whom Satan hath infected by a touch: This shall happen to them because they say. Truly selling is but as usury: And yet God hath permitted selling and forbidden usury. He therefore who when there cometh unto him an admonition from his Lord, abstaineth from usury for the future, shall have what is past forgiven him, and his affair belongeth unto God. But whoever returneth to usury, they shall be the companions of hell fire, they shall continue therein for ever

Ata që e hanë kamatën, nuk ringjallen ndryshe pos si ai që është çmendur nga prekja e shejtanit. Kjo, se ata thonë se tregtia është njëlloj si kamata! Mirëpo, Allahu e ka lejuar tregtinë, porse e ka ndaluar kamatën. Atij që i vjen këshilla nga Zoti i vet dhe heq dorë (nga kamata), i takon ajo që ka kaluar, ndërsa çështja e tij është tek Allahu. Ndërkaq, ata që i kthehen (marrjes së kamatës), do të jenë banorë të Zjarrit, ku do të qëndrojnë përgjithmonë.
যারা সুদ খায় তারা দাঁড়াতে পারবে না, তবে দাঁড়াবে সে ব্যক্তির ন্যায় যাকে শয়তান স্পর্শ দ্বারা পাগল বানিয়ে দেয়। এটা এ জন্য যে, তারা বলে, ‘ক্রয়-বিক্রয় তো সুদেরই মতোই।’ অথচ আল্লাহ ক্রয়-বিক্রয়কে হালাল করেছেন এবং সুদকে করেছেন হারাম। অতএব, যার নিকট তার রবের পক্ষ হতে উপদেশ আসার পর সে বিরত হলো, তাহলে অতীতে যা হয়েছে তা তারই এবং তার ব্যাপার আল্লাহর দায়িত্বে। আর যারা পুনরায় সুদ গ্রহণ করবে, তারা হবে জাহান্নামের অধিবাসী। তারা সেখানে চিরকাল থাকবে।
Oni koji se kamatom hrane dići će se iz grobova svojih baš kao oni koje je šejtan dodirom izbezumio. To je zato što su govorili: "Trgovina je, doista, isto što i kamata!" A Allah je dozvolio trgovinu, a zabranio kamatu. Onome do koga dopre pouka Gospodara njegova, pa se toga okani, pripada ono što je prije stekao, a njegov je slučaj Allahu prepušten. Oni, pak, koji opet to učine, bit će stanovnici Vatre u kojoj će vječno ostati. [1]

ისინი, ვინც იღებენ რიბას (პროცენტს), აღსდგებიან თავიანთი საფლავებიდან მხოლოდ იმგვარად, როგორც აღსდგება ის, ვისაც სატანა თავისი შეხებით დაეცა და გონება აურია (როგორც შეპყრობილი). ეს მათთვის იქნება იმის გამო, რომ ამბობდნენ: «ვაჭრობაც ხომ რიბას (მევახშეობის) მსგავსია». ხოლო ალლაჰმა დაუშვა ვაჭრობა და აკრძალა რიბა (მევახშეობა). ვისთანაც მოვა შეგონება მისი უფლისგან მას შემდეგ, რაც იგი პროცენტით ვაჭრობდა, და თავს შეიკავებს (მოინანიებს და შეწყვეტს), მას ეპატიება ის, რაც მანამდე იყო; და მისი საქმე (განკითხვის დღეს) ალლაჰზეა. ხოლო ვინც დაბრუნდება (და კვლავ განაგრძობს მევახშეობით დაკავებას), ისინი იქნებიან ცეცხლის მკვიდრნი და მასში მარადიულად დარჩებიან.
Diejenigen, die Zins verschlingen, werden nicht anders aufstehen als derjenige (aufsteht), den der Satan durch Wahnsinn hin und her schlägt. Dies, weil sie sagten: „Verkaufen ist ja das Gleiche wie Zinsnehmen.“ Aber Allah hat das Verkaufen erlaubt und das Zinsnehmen verboten. Zu wem nun eine Ermahnung von seinem Herrn kommt und er daraufhin aufhört, dem gehört das, was vergangen ist, und seine Angelegenheit ist Allah überlassen. Wer aber rückfällig wird, so sind jene die Insassen des (Höllen)feuers. Sie werden ewig darin verweilen.
Αυτοί που τρώνε (συλλέγουν) την Αρ-Ρέμπα (τους τόκους) δεν θα σηκωθούν (από τους τάφους τους την Ημέρα της Ανάστασης), παρά όπως σηκώνεται ένα άτομο που χτυπιέται με την τρέλα από το Σατανά. Αυτό επειδή είπαν: «(Τα κέρδη από) το εμπόριο είναι (επιτρεπτά) σαν (τα κέρδη από) την Αρ-Ρέμπα (λήψη τόκων).», ενώ ο Αλλάχ επιτρέπει το εμπόριο και απαγορεύει την Αρ-Ρέμπα (λόγω της αδικίας τού να πάρει κανείς τα χρήματα των ανθρώπων άδικα και χωρίς να δώσει κάτι σε αντάλλαγμα). Έτσι, όποιος έλαβε μια νουθεσία από τον Κύριό του και σταματήσει (να συλλέγει τόκους), μπορεί να κρατήσει ό,τι είχε πάρει (στο παρελθόν)· και η υπόθεσή του είναι για τον Αλλάχ (για να τη δικάσει)· μα όποιος επιστρέφει (στη λήψη τόκων), αυτοί είναι οι κάτοικοι του Πυρός –θα κατοικήσουν εκεί μέσα για πάντα.
जो लोग ब्याज खाते हैं, वे (क़ियामत के दिन अपनी क़ब्रोंं से) ऐसे उठेंगे, जैसे वह व्यक्ति उठता है, जिसे शैतान ने छूकर पागल बना दिया हो। यह इसलिए कि उन्होंने कहा व्यापार तो ब्याज ही जैसा है। हालाँकि अल्लाह ने व्यापार को ह़लाल (वैध) किया तथा ब्याज को हराम[183] (अवैध) ठहराया। फिर जिसके पास उसके पालनहार की ओर से कोई उपदेश आए, सो वह (ब्याज खाने से) रुक जाए, तो जो पहले हो चुका, वह उसी का है और उसका मामला अल्लाह के हवाले है। और जो दोबारा ऐसा करे, तो वही आग वाले हैं, वे उसमें हमेशा रहने वाले हैं।
Quelli che si nutrono con il guadagno dell’usura non si innalzeranno se non come chi è stato posseduto dal diavolo; ciò perché hanno detto: “In verità il commercio è uguale all’usura”, e Allāh ha permesso il commercio e ha proibito l’usura; colui a cui è giunto un monito dal suo Dio, smetta, e non deve restituire ciò che ha guadagnato in passato, e il suo destino dipende da Allāh[27]. E chi persevera, quelli sono la gente del Fuoco, in cui resteranno in eterno.
275. Tie, kurie vartoja Riba [40] (palūkanas) stovės (Prikėlimo Dieną) kaip stovi žmogus, mušamas Šaitan (Šėtono), varantis jį į pamišimą. Taip yra todėl, kad jie sako: „Prekiavimas yra kaip Riba (palūkanos)“. Tuo tarpu Allahas leido prekiauti, tačiau uždraudė Riba (palūkanas). Taigi kas gauna perspėjimą iš savojo Viešpaties ir liaujasi vartojęs Riba (palūkanas) nebus baudžiamas už praeitį. Jo reikalas – Allahui (nuspręsti). Tačiau kas grįžta [į Riba (palūkanas)], tokie yra Ugnies gyventojai – jie gyvens ten.

Те, которые пожирают лихву[22], восстанут [из могил] не иначе как восстаёт тот, кого шайтан поверг своим прикосновением. Это потому, что они сказали: «Воистину, торговля подобна лихве», — а Аллах дозволил торговлю и запретил лихву. Тот, к кому пришло увещевание от его Господа, и он прекратил, — тому принадлежит то, что было прежде, а его дело — у Аллаха. А кто вернулся [к этому], то такие — обитатели адского огня, они пребудут в нём вечно.
Они који се хране каматом дићи ће се из својих гробова баш као они које је ђаво додиром избезумио. То је зато што су говорили: „Трговина је, заиста, исто што и камата!“ А Аллах је дозволио трговину, а забранио је камату. Ономе до кога допре поука од његовог Господара, па се тога окани, припада оно што је пре стекао а његов је случај препуштен Аллаху. Они, пак, који опет то учине, биће становници Ватре у којој ће вечно да остану.
Wale wanaokula riba, hawasimami isipokuwa kama anavyosimama aliyezugwa na Shetani kwa kumgusa. Hayo ni kwa kuwa walisema: Hakika, biashara ni kama riba. Lakini Mwenyezi Mungu ameihalalisha biashara na ameiharamisha riba. Basi mwenye kujiwa na mawaidha kutoka kwa Mola wake Mlezi, kisha akakomeka, basi yake ni yaliyokwishapita. Na mambo yake yako kwa Mwenyezi Mungu. Na wenye kurudia, basi hao ndio watu wa Motoni, wao watadumu humo.
De som tar ränta kommer att resa sig [från sina gravar] på samma sätt som de som är besatta av Satan. Detta därför att de brukade säga: ”Handel är detsamma som ränta.” Men Gud har gjort handel tillåtet och förbjudit ränta. Den som upphör med detta efter att ha nåtts av en förmaning från sin Herre får behålla det som han tidigare tjänat, och hans ärende vilar hos Gud. Den som däremot fortsätter med det kommer att vara eldens folk, och i den ska de förbli.
Faiz yiyenler, ancak şeytanın çarptığı kimsenin kalktığı gibi kalkarlar. Bu, onların, “Alışveriş de faiz gibidir” demelerinden dolayıdır. Oysa Allah, alışverişi helâl, faizi haram kılmıştır. Bundan böyle kime Rabbinden bir öğüt gelir de (o öğüte uyarak) faizden vazgeçerse, artık önceden aldığı onun olur. Durumu da Allah’a kalmıştır. (Allah, onu affeder.) Kim tekrar (faize) dönerse, işte onlar cehennemliklerdir. Orada ebedî kalacaklardır.
سود خور[1] لوگ نہ کھڑے ہوں گے مگر اسی طرح جس طرح وہ کھڑا ہوتا ہے جسے شیطان چھو کر خبطی بنا دے[2] یہ اس لئے کہ یہ کہا کرتے تھے کہ تجارت بھی تو سود ہی کی طرح ہے[3]، حالانکہ اللہ تعالیٰ نے تجارت کو حلال کیا اور سود کو حرام، جو شخص اپنے پاس آئی ہوئی اللہ تعالیٰ کی نصیحت سن کر رک گیا اس کے لئے وہ ہے جو گزرا[4] اور اس کا معاملہ اللہ تعالیٰ کی طرف ہے[5]، اور جو پھر دوبارہ ﴿حرام کی طرف﴾ لوٹا، وہ جہنمی ہے، ایسے لوگ ہمیشہ ہی اس میں رہیں گے۔

It is for the poor; those who are restrained in the way of God, and unable to travel in the land. The unaware would think them rich, due to their dignity. You will recognize them by their features. They do not ask from people insistently. Whatever charity you give, God is aware of it.
(Alms are) for the poor who are straitened for the cause of Allah, who cannot travel in the land (for trade). The unthinking man accounteth them wealthy because of their restraint. Thou shalt know them by their mark: They do not beg of men with importunity. And whatsoever good thing ye spend, lo! Allah knoweth it
unto the poor who are straitened in God's way, and cannot knock about in the earth. The ignorant think them to be rich because of their modesty; you will know them by their mark, they do not beg from men importunately; but what ye spend of good God knows
There are among you the poor, who being shut up to fighting for the cause of God, have it not in their power to strike out into the earth for riches. Those who know them not, think them rich because of their modesty. By this their token thou shalt know them - they ask not of men with importunity: and of whatever good thing ye shall give them in alms, of a truth God will take knowledge
unto the poor who are wholly employed in fighting for the religion of God, and cannot go to and fro in the earth; whom the ignorant man thinketh rich, because of their modesty: Thou shalt know them by this mark, they ask not men with importunity; and what good ye shall give in alms, verily God knoweth it

God condemns usury, and He blesses charities. God does not love any sinful ingrate.
Allah hath blighted usury and made almsgiving fruitful. Allah loveth not the impious and guilty
God shall blot out usury, but shall make almsgiving profitable, for God loves not any sinful misbeliever

Allahu zhduk kamatën (dhe përfitimet prej saj), kurse e rrit lëmoshën (duke shtuar bereqetin dhe shpërblimet e saj). Allahu nuk e do asnjë mohues gjynahqar.
আল্লাহ সুদকে ধ্বংস করেন (৯৪) এবং দানকে বর্ধিত করেন। আর আল্লাহ কোনো অধিক অকৃতজ্ঞ পাপিষ্ঠ ব্যক্তিদেরকে ভালোবাসেন না।
Allah uništava kamatu, a umnožava sadake. Allah ne voli nijednog nevjernika, grešnika.
Allah uništava kamatu, a umnožava milostinje. Allah ne voli ni jednog nevjernika, grešnika.

ალლაჰი ანადგურებს მევახშეობას (ანადგურებს მევახშის ქონებას და ართმევს მას ბარაქას), ხოლო მოწყალებებს ზრდის. და ალლაჰს არ უყვარს ყოველი ურწმუნო ცოდვილი.
Allah lässt den Zins dahinschwinden und Er vermehrt die Almosen. Und Allah liebt keinen, der ein beharrlicher Ungläubiger und Sünder ist.
Ο Αλλάχ καταστρέφει (τα κέρδη από) την Αρ-Ρέμπα (λήψη τόκων, αφαιρώντας τους κάθε ευλογία και μειώνοντάς τα) και πολλαπλασιάζει (τις αμοιβές για) τις ελεημοσύνες (και ευλογεί τα χρήματα αυτών που δίνουν ελεημοσύνες). Και ο Αλλάχ δεν αγαπά κάθε αμαρτωλό άπιστο (που επιμένει στην απιστία και την αμαρτία του καθιστώντας επιτρεπτά αυτά που απαγόρεψε ο Αλλάχ).
अल्लाह ब्याज को मिटाता है और दान को बढ़ाता है और अल्लाह किसी ऐसे व्यक्ति को पसंद नहीं करता जो बहुत अकृतज्ञ, घोर पापी हो।
Allāh vanifica l’usura e moltiplica le elemosine (Sadeqāt الصَّدَقَاتِ), e Allāh non ama i miscredenti peccatori.
276. Allahas sunaikins Riba (palūkanas) ir padidins Sadakat (labdaringus veiksmus, išmaldą ir t. t.). Ir Allahas nemėgsta netikinčiųjų, nuodėmingųjų.
Rabbiin dhala (keessaa barakaa) ni haqa; sadaqaawwan immoo ni guddisa. Rabbiin warra akkaan kafaraa, dilaawaa hunda hin jaalatu.
Аллах уничтожает лихву и приумножает пожертвования. Аллах не любит всякого упорно отвергающего веру [и] погрязшего в грехе.
Аллах уништава камату, а умножава милостињу. Аллах не воли ниједног неверника, грешника.
Mwenyezi Mungu huondoa baraka katika riba, na huzibariki sadaka. Na Mwenyezi Mungu hampendi kila mwenye kukufuru mno na afanyae dhambi nyingi.
Gud utplånar [vinsten från] ränta och låter allmosorna växa. Gud tycker inte om någon som är djupt syndig och otrogen.
Allah, faizi yok eder, sadakaları ise bereketlendirir. Allah, hiçbir günahkâr kâfiri sevmez.
اللہ تعالیٰ سود کو مٹاتا ہے اور صدقہ کو بڑھاتا ہے[1] اور اللہ تعالیٰ کسی ناشکرے اور گنہگار سے محبت نہیں کرتا۔

The translators word this verse differently
Those who swallow usury will not rise, except as someone driven mad by Satan's touch. That is because they say, "Commerce is like usury." But God has permitted commerce, and has forbidden usury. Whoever, on receiving advice from his Lord, refrains, may keep his past earnings, and his case rests with God. But whoever resumes-these are the dwellers of the Fire, wherein they will abide forever.
Those who swallow usury cannot rise up save as he ariseth whom the devil hath prostrated by (his) touch. That is because they say: Trade is just like usury; whereas Allah permitteth trading and forbiddeth usury. He unto whom an admonition from his Lord cometh, and (he) refraineth (in obedience thereto), he shall keep (the profits of) that which is past, and his affair (henceforth) is with Allah. As for him who returneth (to usury) - Such are rightful owners of the Fire. They will abide therein
Those who devour usury shall not rise again, save as he riseth whom Satan hath paralysed with a touch; and that is because they say 'selling is only like usury,' but God has made selling lawful and usury unlawful; and he to whom the admonition from his Lord has come, if he desists, what has gone before is his: his matter is in God's hands. But whosoever returns (to usury) these are the fellows of the Fire, and they shall dwell therein for aye
They who swallow down usury, shall arise in the resurrection only as he ariseth whom Satan hath infected by his touch. This, for that they say, "Selling is only the like of usury:" and yet God hath allowed selling, and forbidden usury. He then who when this warning shall come to him from his Lord, abstaineth, shall have pardon for the past, and his lot shall be with God. But they who return to usury, shall be given over to the fire; therein shall they abide for ever
They who devour usury shall not arise from the dead, but as he ariseth whom Satan hath infected by a touch: This shall happen to them because they say. Truly selling is but as usury: And yet God hath permitted selling and forbidden usury. He therefore who when there cometh unto him an admonition from his Lord, abstaineth from usury for the future, shall have what is past forgiven him, and his affair belongeth unto God. But whoever returneth to usury, they shall be the companions of hell fire, they shall continue therein for ever

If there be an debtor under a difficulty of paying his debt, let his creditor wait till it be easy for him to do it; but if ye remit it as alms, it will be better for you, if ye knew it

The usury you practice, seeking thereby to multiply people's wealth, will not multiply with God. But what you give in charity, desiring God's approval-these are the multipliers.
Compare translations (4)
That which ye give in usury in order that it may increase on (other) people's property hath no increase with Allah; but that which ye give in charity, seeking Allah's Countenance, hath increase manifold
And what ye put out to usury that it may increase with the wealth of men, it shall not increase with God; but what ye put out in alms, desiring the face of God - these it is who shall gain double
Whatever ye put out at usury to increase it with the substance of others shall have no increase from God: but whatever ye shall give in alms, as seeking the face of God, shall be doubled to you
Whatever ye shall give in usury, to be an increase of men's substance, shall not be increased by the blessing of God: But whatever ye shall give in alms, for God's sake, they shall receive a twofold reward

- Hafs/Kufan verse numbering, 6236 ayahs. The bismillah is delivered as a separate `bismillah` attribute on ayah 1 and is NOT fused into the ayah text. 112 surahs carry one: every surah except al-Fatiha, where the bismillah is ayah 1:1 itself, and at-Tawba, which has none. Sourced from the XML output; the plain-text output of the same release DOES fuse it, which is defect D1.

Und was ihr an Zins ausleiht, damit es sich aus dem Vermögen der Menschen vermehre, so vermehrt es sich bei Allah nicht. Und was ihr aber an Pflichtabgaben entrichtet, indem ihr das Angesicht Allahs begehrt - so sind jene, die das Vielfache erzielen.
Ό,τι χρήματα δίνετε με σκοπό την τοκογλυφία για να αυξηθούν από τα χρήματα των ανθρώπων, δε θα αυξηθούν ενώπιον του Αλλάχ (δηλ. δε θα τα ευλογήσει, αλλά θα τα καταστρέψει). Ό,τι δίνετε σε ελεημοσύνη, επιζητώντας την ευχαρίστηση του Αλλάχ, τότε εκείνοι (που δίνουν σε ελεημοσύνη) θα είναι αυτοί που θα έχουν πολλαπλές ανταμοιβές (από τον Αλλάχ).
और तुम ब्याज पर जो (उधार) देते हो, ताकि वह लोगों के धनों में मिलकर अधिक[14] हो जाए, तो वह अल्लाह के यहाँ अधिक नहीं होता। तथा तुम अल्लाह का चेहरा चाहते हुए जो कुछ ज़कात से देते हो, तो वही लोग कई गुना बढ़ाने वाले हैं।
E ciò che avete dato a usura, per farlo aumentare a danno altrui, non porta nessun aumento da Allāh ; mentre coloro che hanno dato la Zekēt ﴿زَكَاة﴾ per cercare il volto di Allāh, quelli sono coloro a cui verrà raddoppiato.
39. O tai, ką duodi dovanai (kitiems), tam, kad tai padidintų (tavo turtą, tikintis gauti geresnį atgal) iš kitų žmonių turto, neturi padidėjimo pas Allahą. Tačiau tai, ką duodi Zakat (sadaka – labdarai ir t. t.), siekdamas Allaho Veido, tada tie, jie turės visokeriopą padidėjimą.

И то, что вы даёте в рост, чтобы оно прирастало за счёт имущества людей, — оно не прирастёт у Аллаха. А то, что вы выплачиваете из закята, стремясь к Лику Аллаха, — такие и есть те, кому будет приумножено.
А новац који дајете да се увећа новцем других људи неће се код Аллаха увећати, а за милостињу коју уделите да бисте се Аллаху умилили – такви ће добра дела своја умногостручити.
Na mnachokitoa kwa riba ili kiongezeke katika mali ya watu, basi hakiongezeki mbele ya Mwenyezi Mungu. Lakini mnachokitoa kwa Zaka kwa kutaka uso wa Mwenyezi Mungu, basi hao ndio watakaozidishiwa.
Det ni lånar ut mot ränta för att öka ert välstånd på andras bekostnad leder inte till någon vinst hos Gud. Men den allmosa ni ger för att vinna Guds välbehag leder till en mångfaldig belöning.
İnsanların mallarında artış olsun diye verdiğiniz herhangi bir faiz, Allah katında artmaz. Ama Allah'ın yüzünü isteyerek vermekte olduğunuz zekâta gelince, işte (bu amel sahipleri, sevaplarını) kat kat arttıranlardır.

The translators word this verse differently
Do they not see that God expands the provision for whomever He wills, or restricts it? Surely in this are signs for people who believe.
See they not that Allah enlargeth the provision for whom He will, and straiteneth (it for whom He will). Lo! herein indeed are portents for folk who believe
Have they not seen that God extends provision to whom He pleases, or doles it out? verily, in that are signs unto a people who believe
See they not that God bestoweth full supplies on whom He pleaseth and giveth sparingly to whom He pleaseth? Signs truly are there herein to those who believe
Do they not see that God bestoweth provision abundantly on whom He pleaseth, and is sparing unto whom He pleaseth? Verily herein are signs unto people who believe

God is He who created you, then provides for you, then makes you die, then brings you back to life. Can any of your idols do any of that? Glorified is He, and Exalted above what they associate.

Corruption has appeared on land and sea, because of what people's hands have earned, in order to make them taste some of what they have done, so that they might return.
Corruption doth appear on land and sea because of (the evil) which men's hands have done, that He may make them taste a part of that which they have done, in order that they may return
Trouble hath appeared in the land and the sea, for what men's hands have gained! to make them taste a part of that which they have done,- haply they may return

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it5 of the 6 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page
The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.
Read across all five cleared translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930, Itani 2012 - of 2:275, 2:276, 2:278, 3:130, 4:161, 30:39, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified.
RE-DERIVED OVER FIVE ON 2026-09-08, superseding the version signed 2026-09-05 over four. Itani 2012 cleared on 2026-09-07, after that signing, and this study has now been read against him at every anchor. He enters as a fifth voice and is not promoted to the reading that settles the term. What changed: at 3:130 Itani writes compounded over and over where the other four write a form of doubling, which is a fifth reading of the clause the study says they disagree about; at 2:276 he states the contrast as a judgement - God condemns usury, and He blesses charities - where the other four state it as an act done to the two. AND A CLAIM THIS STUDY PUBLISHED IS WITHDRAWN AS FALSE. It called 2:276 the most divergent verse in the entire corpus at 0.83. Measured on 2026-09-08 on the five-rendering measure, across all 6,236 verses it covers, 2:276 stands 56th; recomputed on the four-rendering measure this study was signed over, by dropping the Itani pairs from the stored pair distances, it stood 71st of the 6,227 verses that measure covers, with seventy verses above it. THE CLAIM WAS ALREADY UNTRUE ON THE DAY IT WAS SIGNED, and Itani did not cause it. It is corrected in the synthesis and in the reason at 2:276 to the claim the figures do support: 2:276 is the most divergent verse in this study's set. The divergence figures below are restated on the five-based measure. What did not change: the verse set, the reasons per verse other than the two noted below, and the finding that these verses do not define the term.
How this set was arrived at. Candidates came from a conjunctive word search over all four renderings in mushaf order, qualifying where every probe term was present in at least three of the four. THE TERMS OF THAT SEARCH WERE NOT RECORDED IN THE SIGNED STUDY and cannot be recovered, so neither the search nor its three-of-four qualifying rule has been re-run; what follows is a fresh probe, recorded in full, whose results were read but from which nothing was taken. The re-check over five translations added and removed no verse. Why each passage is in the study is stated per passage, and is signed with this prose.
PROBE VOCABULARY OF THIS RE-DERIVATION, RECORDED SO IT CAN BE RE-RUN. Run 2026-09-08 over all five cleared renderings, conjunctive, mushaf order: ["usury"] - 8 verses in the whole corpus, reaching all six anchors, in all five renderings at every one of them; ["riba"] - 0 verses; ["interest"] - 3, reaching no anchor; ["doubling"] - 1, reaching one anchor; ["compounded"] - 1, reaching one; ["usury","alms"] - 3, reaching two. Union 11 verses, of which 5 are not anchors of this study. THE UNION IS NOT A CANDIDATE SET FOR THIS STUDY and no verse was taken from it: the set was confirmed by the Editor, not by the union. Four results are recorded because they bear on the finding. "riba", the word in this study's own question, RETURNS NOTHING: it appears in no cleared rendering, and every English word here is a translator's choice for it. "interest" returns three verses and reaches none of the six; the only one of the three about usury at all is 2:279, where Pickthall alone writes principal (without interest) - and 2:279 continues the passage this study carries at 2:275-2:278 without being in it. "usury" returns only eight verses in the whole corpus, six of which are this study's anchors; the other two are Sale alone, at 2:245 and 5:12, where he renders a loan to God that the verse praises as lend unto God on good usury - the same English word this study is about, carrying the opposite valence, in one translator. "doubling" returns a single verse, 3:130, in Sale, Rodwell and Pickthall; "compounded" returns a single verse, the same one, in Itani alone. 2:279 is recorded for the Editor rather than acted on: whether it belongs in this study is an editorial act and was not taken in a re-check over five translations.
Where the renderings part company, named rather than resolved. Across this set the derived divergence measure, recomputed over five renderings on 2026-09-07, runs from band 3 at 3:130 (0.62), where the five stand closest, to band 5 at 2:276 (0.84), where they stand furthest apart. The version signed when four translations were cleared named the same two verses at 0.58 and 0.83, and both bands are unchanged. 2:276 is the most divergent verse in this set and is in the most divergent band of five; it is not the most divergent verse in the corpus, and the sentence that said so has been withdrawn above. The study names the differences it turns on and does not choose between them.
