On the staged exit framework
Sh. Yasir Qadhi
What this source says
The framework is this: stop entering new riba contracts immediately. Begin exiting existing ones as soon as your circumstances allow. The exit does not need to be reckless to be sincere. A staged exit over two to five years, with documented intention and consistent action, is acceptable to the scholars. What is not acceptable is indefinite postponement under the comfort of disclaimer.
