Islamic Bank Depositing In Conventional Bank
Is it permissible for an Islamic bank to deposit funds in a conventional bank?
Islamic banks should seek to maximize their dealings with other Islamic banks, but in case of genuine need an Islamic bank may deposit funds with a conventional bank provided no interest is taken or given. If its withdrawals exceed the deposited amount so that the conventional bank becomes the Islamic bank’s creditor, under no circumstances should interest be paid.
