Investment certificates are a loan with usurious interest, which is forbidden. All jurisprudential conferences have ruled this. It is not permissible to invest money in them, and any interest earned must be disposed of by spending it on general Muslim welfare, and money should be withdrawn from usurious banks. Money can be invested in Islamic banks through savings accounts or investment deposits based on the legitimate contract.
