Long story short, when I took student loans, I was not too knowledgeable about my religion and found out later that it is is forbidden to receive or pay interest in Islam. I have made a legal contract to pay interest with student loans. My interest rates are fairly high and all of my monthly payments go toward the interest. On one hand, I realize that I have made a promise by entering into this contract. On the other hand, I feel guilty that I am sinning and going against my religion. I'm in a dilemma and do not know what to do. Not paying interest would mean not paying my loans. And paying means going against God.
Is it possible to file a case against the US Department of Education for this? I feel that I am being forced to disobey my religious responsibilities. I realize that it is my fault by not being aware of them when I took student loans. I had no other choice in order to go to college. But does this change the fact that paying interest is against my religious belief? Should I be forced to pay it?
Is there anything I can do to protect my religious liberties while also complying with my legal promises?
Please help with any advice or information you may have. Have you heard of any other similar legal cases in the past like this one?
