As-salaamu alaikumJazakAllah khyair for sharing this. Subhanallah, this is the sort of thing we need to promote and also collaborate with. I think it is also important that JAK Bank is made aware of the Islamic prohibition of interest. Sadly, most Muslims and Muslim countries are knowingly and/or unknoweing at war with Allah swt and His Rasool (s). May Allah swt guide us all to the truth of Islam and give us strength to uphold justice and truth. Ameen.
