So I was feeling in a semi-religious mood, having come back from the mosque and also reading an interesting article on the BBC website regarding Gay Nikah, but that is besides the point. So i went onto this forum that i am registered to. Sometimes, i like to look at the absolute ridiculous questions people ask, an example being "Is it Haraam to Overtake cars?"
So as i was going through this i came across a question, "Is Riba Haraam?"Now I was a tad perplexed, I had no idea what "Riba" was. So as Darth Sister was here i decided to ask her. "What does Riba mean?" she paused, looked at me as though I was dunce and said "Firstly it 'Ree-baa' so before you ask anyone else get that right ok? and it stands for Royal Institute of British Architects."
I looked blankly at her and replied, "What are you talking about, how is that related to Islam?"
I laughed at her
Btw Riba is the Islamic term for Interest
