Lesson twenty four :Calamity of debt

Islam`s Prophet( S. A. )says:

إيّاكُمْ وَ الْدَّيْنَ فَإنَّهُ هَمٌّ بِاللَيْلِ، وَ ذُلٌ بِالنَّهارِ!

Translation

Avoid borrowing as far as you can, because it causes grief at night and contempt on day..

Brief description

Garishness of material life and luxury competition in our period has caused people to undertake unreasonable loans and exhausting debts and installments.

Since a debtor is not considered as a free man, we are instructed not to undertake debt unless for a dire necessity.

The danger of debt at the level of countries would be more and its effects would be more fatal, and it hurts freedom and spiritual independence of nations.
