Abstract
Hadith collections and their commentaries are one of the primary resources on Islamic jurisprudence. Taking the renowned Jami’ al-Sihah alone as an example, there is not least than sixteen commentaries, from which guidance can be sought and ahkam can be derived. Thus, suffice to be a clear evidence to the Muslim’s abundant references and sources. Al-Imam Muslim, without making any repetition, had carefully accumulated thirty two authentic hadiths concerning riba. The usurious transaction, particularly in the case of riba al-nasi’ah always occur in the form of loan and credit, that wittingly and unwittingly practised in every day life even among Muslims themselves.
