Q: I'm in my 2nd year, studying accounting. I read the following hadith the other day: Allah's Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) cursed the recipient of usury (interest), and its giver, and one who records it, and the two witnesses; and he (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, "They are all equal (in sin and penalty)" as narrated by Hazrat Jaabir bin Abdullah (radhiyallahu anhu). I am now worried, as an accountant will record interest when doing accounts. What should I do?
