Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

To take a loan on interest is haram. If your husband threatens to divorce you and that will lead you to commit suicide, then you will be excused for taking an interest bearing loan.

However, what if your husband makes a similar demand in the future? How will you pay the loan and interest? We advise you consult a senior person of the town or family to discuss the issue with both of you or only with your husband. The person must command respect and look for a solution to your husband?s problem.

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Wassalamu Alaykum
