Hadith 2570

حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي حُرَّةَ الرَّقَاشِيِّ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ آخِذًا بِزِمَامِ نَاقَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَوْسَطِ أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ أَذُودُ النَّاسَ عَنْهُ، فَقَالَ: "أَلَا إِنَّ كُلَّ رِبًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ مَوْضُوعٌ، أَلَا وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ قَضَى أَنَّ أَوَّلَ رِبًا يُوضَعُ رِبَا عَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ، لَكُمْ رُءُوسُ أَمْوَالِكُمْ لَا تَظْلِمُونَ وَلَا تُظْلَمُونَ".
Abu Hurrah Raqashi narrated from his uncle, he said: I was holding the rein of the camel of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) during the days of Tashreeq and was keeping people away from him, and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was saying: "Listen, O people! Every kind of usury from the time of ignorance is null and forgiven. Listen! Indeed, Allah the Exalted has decreed that the first usury to be forgiven is that of Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib. For you is your principal amount (i.e., take back only the original amount), neither do you wrong nor will you be wronged."

Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 2569)

In the era of ignorance (Jahiliyyah), transactions involving interest (riba) were conducted, which, by the command of Allah Ta'ala, the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam declared forbidden during the Farewell Pilgrimage (Hajjat al-Wada‘).
If a person gives a loan to someone, he should take back only his principal amount, and not take interest (riba) along with it, because interest is forbidden (haram).
Its details are coming ahead in the ahadith.
Allah Ta'ala says: « ﴿يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَذَرُوا مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الرِّبَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ﴾ [البقرة : 278]» "O you who have believed! Fear Allah and give up what remains [due to you] of interest, if you should be believers."
And this is among the last verses that were revealed in the final days of the blessed life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
Similarly, the statement of Allah Ta'ala is: «﴿يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَأْكُلُوا الرِّبَا أَضْعَافًا مُضَاعَفَةً﴾ [آل عمران : 130]» "O believers! Do not consume interest, doubled and multiplied."
