Question
Is there a prohibition of interest between a child and their parents if the child lives with them, and what is the ruling if they do not? I would appreciate an answer.
Answer
Hello,
The prohibition of interest applies in all cases.
Therefore, when a parent owes a debt to a child, it is forbidden to add to the payment due to delay or postponement.
