Verse 275 - TranslationThose who consume interest cannot stand [on the
Day of Resurrection] except as one stands who is being beaten by Satan into insanity. That is
because they say, "Trade is [just] like interest." But Allah has permitted trade and has
forbidden interest. So whoever has received an admonition from his Lord and desists may have what is past, and his affair rests with Allah . But whoever returns to [dealing in interest or usury] - those are the companions of the Fire; they will
abide eternally therein.

About Riba (interest)… This Ayah means, on the Day of Resurrection,
these people will get up from their graves just as the person afflicted by insanity or possesed by a demon would.
"Trade is [just] like interest.“: the disbelievers said that “they are similar, so why did Allah allow this, but did not allow that.”
Those who have knowledge that Allah made riba unlawful, and refrain from it as soon as they know, then Allah will forgive their previous dealings in Riba.

6
The lawful and unlawful… The Shari`ah supports the rule that for
any matter that is unlawful, then the means to it are also unlafwful.
Hadith: Both lawful and unlawful things are evident, but in between them there are matters that are not clear.
Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt.

Verse 276-277 - TranslationAllah destroys interest and gives increase
for charities. And Allah does not like every sinning disbeliever.
Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds and establish prayer and give zakah will have their reward
with their Lord, and there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.

Continued..ayah 276-277 Allah states that He destroys Riba, either
by removing this money from those who eat it, or by depriving them of the blessing of it.
Allah increases charity and makes it grow. Allah praised those who believe in His
Lordship, obey His commands, thank Him and appreciate Him. They are those who are kind to His creation, establish prayer and give charity due on their money.

Verse 278-279 - TranslationO you who have believed, fear Allah and
give up what remains [due to you] of interest, if you should be believers.
And if you do not, then be informed of a war [against you] from Allah and His
Messenger. But if you repent, you may have your principal - [thus] you do no
wrong, nor are you wronged.
nurulquran.com
12
Fear Allah & abandon the Riba Allah commands His believing servants
to fear Him. “give up what remains” means:
abandon the Riba that people still owe you upon hearing this warning.
This Ayah was revealed about two tribes who became Muslims, but had leftover Riba from time of jahiliyyah.

13
More about ayah 279… Ayah 279 serves as a strong threat to those
who continue to deal in Riba after Allah revealed this warning.
The Messenger of Allah SAW said a speech during the farewell Hajj: “Verily, every case of Riba from the Jahiliyyah is completely annulled. You will only take back your capital, without increase or decrease. The first Riba that I annul is the Riba of Al-`Abbas bin `Abdul-Muttalib, all of it is annulled.”

Verse 280-281 - TranslationAnd if someone is in hardship, then [let there
be] postponement until [a time of] ease. But if you give [from your right as] charity, then it is better for you, if you only knew.
And fear a Day when you will be returned to Allah. Then every soul will be compensated
for what it earned, and they will not be treated unjustly.

16
Being kind to debtors… Allah commands creditors to be patient
with debtors who are having a hard time financially.
“But if you give [from your right as] charity” means: if you let go of the debt, and cancel it completely.
Hadith: Whoever gives time to a debtor facing hard times, will gain charity of equal proportions for each day he gives.
nurulquran.com
17
Hadith… On the Day of Resurrection, one of Allah's servants
will be summoned before Him and He will ask him, "What deeds did you perform for Me in your life'' He will say, "O Lord! In my life, I have not performed a deed for Your sake that equals an atom,'' three times. The third time, the servant will add, "O Lord! You granted me wealth and I used to be a merchant. I used to be lenient, giving easy terms to those well-off and giving time to the debtors who faced hard times.'' Allah will say, "I Am the Most Worthy of giving easy terms. Therefore, enter Paradise.''

The Day when you will return to Allah…
Allah further advised His servants, by reminding them that this life will soon end and all the wealth in it will vanish.
The Hereafter will surely come, when the Return to Him will occur, and that He will hold His creation accountable for what they did.
It was reported that Ayah 281 was the last Ayah revealed from the Glorious Qur'an.
