For commodities where weight, measure, and consumption status are all present, such as rice, sesame, millet, cottons, oils, vinegar, milk, and meat, Riba al-Fadl is established, according to one consistent narration. This is the view held by the majority of scholars, which Ibn al-Mundhir stated is the opinion of the scholars of the cities, past and present, with the exception of Qatadah who restricted prohibition only to the six mentioned items.
