Simple question

It forbidden in Islam to charge another Muslim interest.

It’s also forbidden in JUDAISM.

Do you mean others... Opposed to other? Because it reads different with or without the s in other.

And to answer your question. There are no jews who own banks in which other jews are a member of?

Jews sure do charge interest. It’s criminal what a Jewish banker will do for some interest payments.

I thought that’s exactly what Jews were known for? No problem with Jewish people but I always thought that was the stereotype.

Jews can engage in usury with Gentiles, but not with one another. I'll let you do your own research as to why. Maybe it will open your eyes.

I believe they can charge interest but debts reset every 50 years in the OT. Year of Jubilee

Christians aren’t supposed to charge interest either.

Luke 6: 34-35

And if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to get back the same amount. But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil

Muslim screw worse than just charging each other interest...

quote:

Banks that follow Islamic finance principles do not issue interest-based loans but instead buy assets (like a house, car, etc.) and then lease it to the customer, sharing in the profits as the customer pays it off.

Christians were forbidden to loan money to other Christians. This lasted until the 1600’s to some degree. Heads of state got around this by borrowing money from Jews eventually Christian merchants wanted in the lending game.
