Using a credit card and getting involved in interest

Q: I am very much in need of money. I have requested to my friends, family,and colleagues to lend me money but no body gives me. Now I have to pay my house rent and I have only one choice of credit card. Please let me know what to do to save my honour and respect in society. Can I avail the available choice.

A: If using of the credit card means that you will get yourself involved in some usurous dealing then this is impermissible and haraam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
