Chapter on Recognizing the Major Sins for Which Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty, Has Threatened with Hellfire
وَ رَوَى هِشَامُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: "إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ اَلرِّبَا كَيْلاَ يَمْتَنِعُوا مِنْ صَنَائِعِ اَلْمَعْرُوفِ".
Hisham ibn Salim narrated from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام that he said: "Indeed, Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Mighty and Majestic, only forbade usury so that people would not refrain from acts of kindness."
