Question:
The state granted me a plot of land, specifying the plot number and area, along with a set period for paying the ownership fees. If I do not pay this amount, the state will take the plot back from me. I agreed with one of my relatives to buy the plot before the deadline expired, so they asked me whether this sale is permissible or not.
Answer:
It is not permissible except after taking possession. It is not permissible to sell the land until you take possession of it. You take possession of it from the government and it becomes your property. As long as you have not taken possession of it, it is not permissible to sell things until you take possession of them. The owners take possession of them.
