"In 1992, the Federal Shariah Court ordered the abolition of the interest rate system in Pakistan, which was later challenged in the Supreme Court of Pakistan. The Supreme Court later referred the decision back to the Federal Shariah Court in 2002 for reconsideration. In its judgment, the Federal Shariah Court declared all legal provisions relating to usury from 1 June 2022 to be non-Shari'a, stating that "interest taken in any case, including debt, falls under the category of usury." And the federal government has been ordered to completely abolish interest rates and implement a usury-free banking system in the country within a period of five years." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Shariah_Court_verdict_on_interest_system_in_Pakistan
