Shakespeare "Neither a borrower nor a lender be"Maybe next time around the lesson will be learned.
In Islam, the view on interest rates on loans is that charging or paying interest is not permissible, as it is considered usurious and exploitative. Islamic teachings prohibit the concept of riba (usury or interest) due to the belief that money should not be an asset in itself and that one should not earn income solely from money. Islamic finance operates based on principles that avoid riba and gharar (ambiguity or deception), promoting fairness and risk-sharing in financial t***sactions[3][4]. To comply with these principles, Islamic financial institutions offer alternatives to traditional loans, such as no-interest home purchase plans (HPPs) where the bank buys the property and leases it back to the buyer[1]. While Islamic finance allows for borrowing under certain circumstances, there is a strong emphasis on responsible borrowing, timely repayment, and avoiding debt burdens. The Islamic perspective on debt highlights the ethical, moral, and social responsibilities associated with borrowing and emphasizes the virtues of living a debt-free life[5]. Ultimately, Islamic teachings guide individuals to practice ethical financial behavior, including refraining from interest-based t***sactions and promoting fair and just financial practices.

The quote serves as a reflection of Shakespeare's diverse character portrayals and the complexities of human behavior[1][2][3].
