Mishkat al-Masabih #2709
Business Transactions
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنِ الرِّبَا وَإِنْ كَثُرَ فإِنَّ عاقبتَه تصيرُ إِلى قُلِّ: رَوَاهُمَا ابْنُ مَاجَهْ وَالْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي شُعَبِ الْإِيمَانِ. وَرَوَى أَحْمد الْأَخير
Ibn Mas'ud reported God’s Messenger as saying, "Even though usury be much it leads in the end to penury.”
Ibn Majah and Baihaqi, in Shu'ab al-iman, transmitted it, and Ahmad also transmitted it.
