Repaying Loan With Extra
May the borrower repay the loan with an amount greater than the borrowed loan (the excess being a gesture of goodwill)?
It is permissible for the borrower to repay an amount greater than the size of the loan as a gesture of goodwill (without letting such a gesture become customary practice), but impermissible for the borrower to promise to pay a greater amount at the time of borrowing or for the lender to demand a greater amount.
