Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if the seller finds his specific goods in the possession of the insolvent buyer, and this amount of money has decreased, and the seller has been compensated for this decrease, is it permissible for him to take this money?
Answer:
No, because the goods are no longer the seller’s. The money now belongs to the insolvent person, and the money has become the property of the creditors. Therefore, it is not permissible for him to reclaim it, as long as he has received part of its price, it is not permissible for him to reclaim it. Yes.
