You’re not sure about the Islamic ruling behind bank loans, or even credit cards for that matter.You’re thinking about buying a house. You thought about renting, but it almost feels like throwing money away. You thought about getting an Islamic mortgage, but you’re not even sure what that means. You’re confused about whether you’re allowed to get a conventional mortgage or not.You don’t have enough money to pay your tuition. Everyone else seems to be getting OSAP, and apparently you don’t need to pay interest on it right away.

In fact, you’re not even sure if you’re required to pay zakat.
