Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A wager occurred between me and one of the brothers, in which I said that if he did this matter, I would give him two hundred. I did not specify what they were, and in my intention they were two hundred halalas, while he thinks they are two hundred riyals.
Answer:
Even if they are two hundred halalas, is this not permissible? This is one of the invalid wagers, is it not permissible? Yes.
