That's great..in fact the most necessary thing a true Muslim society must adopt.usury is the biggest sin , the biggest,, so much so that Allah has challenged those involved in usury to be ready for open war with almighty and his prophet.A war which the whole universe even can not think about it.
May Allah bless u Blue his tan.
