Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If I agree with one of the brothers that I will take a commodity from him and sell it to him for a fixed price, and whatever exceeds this price is for me, is this permissible?
Answer:
No. If he says to you, “Sell this commodity for one hundred riyals, and if there is a surplus, it is yours,” then there is nothing wrong with that, because he has agreed to it and made it permissible for you. Yes. Yes.
