Islamic banks and the new fatwa of al Azhar

Fatawa Question

Assalamu Alaikum : Riba : Al-Azhar Fatawa say modern fixed bank interest is not Ribaj-jahliya. Here in Pakistan the devaluation is about 18 % p.a banks pay only 12 % which they call profit. We officially have no Riba bank accounts are profit / loss accounts but in reality its interest as offered by any other bank. I don’t have a job right now and I am unable to enter a business and I need constant income my savings are eroding as I am living on my savings for the past 13 months. Please suggest. Is this Proflt Riba ? Can I take this profit for a certain period of time till I’m able to earn some money through a job or a business ?
