"Riba, which means not only usury, but all forms of unearned income, has been strictly prohibited by Islam. Although the Qur’an did not specify any particular kind of riba, Muslim scholars have categorized it in two types: riba al-nasi’ah, and riba al-fadl. Riba al-nasi’ah refers to the interest on loans; its prohibition essentially implies that the fixing in advance of a positive return on a loan as a reward for waiting is not permitted in Islam. Riba al-fadl is the excess over and above the loan paid in kind. It lies in the payment of an addition by the debtor to the creditor in exchange of commodities of the same kind. The Shari’ah wishes to eliminate not merely the exploitation that is intrinsic in the institution of interest, but also that which is inherent in all forms of unjust exchange in business transactions." to make it simple; Riba is not only involving the Interest during a business, but also involving the One-Sided business.Only one side gaining benefits out of the business is also part of Riba'.
