There are two aspects of this question, first is opening an account in a riba-based bank,depositing money in it, and taking the riba or interest that is paid on it.
And the other is opening an account in these banks without riba or interest
It is permissible, Allah knows better
Yes, Muslims can, but It is important to check that the account is interest free like current account in Pakistan.
Opening of a Bank Account (as such) is not prohibited in Islam. In islam what is prohibited is Riba i.e giving or taking money on interest. Since banks are the institutions that primarily deal with interest and normaly a person a deposits money in bank for interest or barrows money from bank on interest and its because of the interest baseed business of banks muslims stay away from banks. However if a bank is non-interst based like islamic banks or a person opens zero interest bank account or opens bank account to safe gaurd his money or opening of bank account is a legal or business necessity and he intends not to take the interest it is permisible to open a bank account. the answer is based on our knowlege and understanding, Allah knows better.
Yes Muslims can open bank account in in Intreast free banking incase anybody open acount in conventional bank so just open current account.
Two possible types of bank account are current account and savings account. Current account is perfectly valid. And in the savings account, some banks offer interest-free profit according to Islamic principles, which is perfectly permissible, while interest-bearing profit is forbidden. Allah knows best.
Yes Muslims can have bank account.but not saving account.
Yes
Muslims can open account in Islamic banks, because Islamic banks provides services which based on Islamic principles, like Mudharaba, Musharaka, Ijarah etc.
