Question 18: In answer to the question whether or not complete paw-broking (al-rahn or real security) and leasing are allowed, many have prohibited full pawn-broking. They say that the contract should be based on a lease with the condition of a loan. Since the individuals do not really intend to give a loan and they resort to such a contract only to get rid of riba (interest) with neither of them meaning to take a loan and give it while the contract is concluded under the title "lease" or "compromise" while both sides allow each other to use the property for a fixed period of time (for example, A (owner of the real estate) allows B (the other person) to use the benefit and he (b) also allows the other side (a) to use his property), is there any religious prohibition in such a contract?
