In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful

The answer to your question is as follows:

Usury is forbidden in the Islamic Shari'ah,  and it is clearly proven in the holy Quran and Hadith. It is a matter of great danger to make any kind of flexibility. In the Holy Qur'an, Allah Almighty has ordered us to avoid usurious transactions with strict words, and also in the hadiths, it has also been strongly condemned; therefore it is not permissible to take usurious loans. If there is a strong reason to do so, point it out and send your query again.
