If there is some punishment for  riba then will the Interest (riba) payer be equally treated with same  punishment? Please note my question is regarding worldly punishment.<\/div>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>The  Islamic Shari&#8217;ah has prescribed punishments only for few crimes. A  study of the issue would reveal that the punishments are mainly  prescribed for the crimes where the victim is an individual or the  society. There are numerous sins but few punishable crimes. For example  there is no punishment for those who do not offer the Prayer or pay the  zakah. This distinction is in fact considered in all the systems of the  world. It is never possible to punish every act that is not approved.  Criminal law is a distinctive branch in almost all the countries and  traditions. <\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<div>The  Shari&#8217;ah has not prescribed any punishment for devouring riba. However,  it does not mean that the state cannot punish the culprits it has  banned the practice and has held it punishable. <\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<div>Please  note that the Shari&#8217;ah has condemned and forbidden devouring riba and  not being subjected to paying it. The borrower should not be burdened by  the lender to pay anything more than the original lent amount and what  he may lose as a result of inflation. If he makes the borrower pay more  he is transgressing the moral and religious laws and not the borrower  who may never borrow the amount if he had the option to get an interest  free loan.<\/div>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-03-10<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6880\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I  was thinking in terms of any Ta\u2019zeer punishment or Hadd for the one who  consumes riba, haram meat, meat of dead-haram animals as there were  Hadd punishments for various acts in the Qur\u2019an.
