He Was Involved In Interest

Once Hazrat Maalik Bin Dinaar (rahmatullah alayh) visited a sick man. The man was in his death throes. Whenever Hazrat Maalik made Talqeen of the Kalimah to him, the man would respond: ‘Ten, eleven.’ Then the dying man added: ‘O Maalik! There is a mountain of fire in front of me. When I attempt to recite the Kalimah, the mountain of fire moves threateningly towards me.”

When Hazrat Maalik questioned his relatives, they said that he was a devourer of interest and he would give short weight.
