In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful
The answer to your question is as follows:
It is good to strive for higher education, but keep in mind that Shariah restrictions are only for the safety of our future. Even with a good education, there is no guarantee that your worries will go away, though there is a likelihood of job. Therefore, while remaining within the realm of Shariah, you can continue your education by using whatever means are available and avoid usury based endeavor, otherwise the situation may become more severe in the future due to the menace of usury. Money lender’s loans in particular should be avoided altogether.
In this regard, keep in mind the suggestions of ‘Fiqh Academy of India’: If a person does not have the financial means and cannot get a non-interest loan and fears that he will be deprived of the required education, then such students should seek the suggestions of a trustworthy Mufti. So, you should put your situation in front of a reliable mufti and follow their advice. (Naye Masail awr Fiq academy ke fasile P 249)
