Oleh itu, adakah Islam menghalalkan bayaran menggunakan perjanjian hutang sebagai wang? Adakah Islam menghalalkan perjanjian pinjaman mengalir sebagai wang dan dan tanpa had? (b) Kertas wang tidak mempunyai nilai melainkan paksaan undang-undang. Oleh itu, adakah paksaan undang-undang menghalalkan kertas sebagai bernilai mengikut Syariah? (c) Bank Note yang mana hakikatnya Promissory Note atau Negotiable Instrument adalah janji membayar wang sebenar. Oleh itu, adakah halal untuk meminjamkan janji membayar wang sebenar (yang mana tidak pernah wujud)? Sila komen dan berikan pendapat anda. Terima kasih. Rujukan http://muslimvillage.wordpress.com/
