Q: I have a question about investing money in the Bank. Few banks are offering me to open a monthly saving account. They are promising me a profit of 11.5% every month for investing with them. I will be receiving this amount without losing my investment. Is this permissible in Islam?
A: In Islam, it is not permissible to stipulate the profits in proportion to the capital investment. Hence, if the 11.5% profit every month is stipulated in proportion to the capital investment, it will be impermissible.
