Repaying Debt When Currency Value Drops
A person borrowed 360,000 Syrian pounds from his father in 2010, and the value of the currency has changed now. The father is asking the son to calculate the value of the debt in dollars. What is the ruling on that?
Answer
This drop, if it is significant and unusual, is ruled to be compensated at value, whether in dollars or gold.
