Even the consensus has to be supported by ahadith or Quranic verses. There has to be an Islamic reason as to why the consensus is what it is. If interest is the only reason working in a bank is haram then here is a question.
How many businesses are there that don't deal in interest in one form or another? If working in a bank is haram because of interest, shouldn't it be haram to work in any organisation that deals in interest?
Of course I'm not knowledgable enough to disagree with the moulanas, but it's just that this question has been bubbling in my head for some time.

A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.
