In the lands of disbelief, they make the signature the mark of acceptance of the document. Is that to be made in the transactions of Muslims?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: The law in the lands of disbelief makes the mark of acceptance. He says, what? The law. The law, yes. A questioner from outside these lands says: The law in our lands of disbelief makes the mark of acceptance the signature on the document. Is that to be made in the transactions of Muslims so that it becomes a mark of acceptance?

Answer:
There is no doubt that even among Muslims, the signature establishes it. It establishes acceptance and other things, and it establishes the sale if he sold and signed. If it did not establish it, what would be the benefit of signatures? Yes.
