The Default Ruling in Transactions and Acts of Worship
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We have a connection with Mu'ayyad from Ta'if. O Mu'ayyad, the connection has been lost. We return to your questions, brothers and sisters. This one asks, may Allah bless you: "We know that the default ruling in acts of worship is based on textual evidence and that they are restricted to what is prescribed. So what is the default ruling in transactions?"
Answer:
The default ruling in transactions is permissibility, except for what evidence indicates is forbidden. The default ruling in acts of worship is that they are based on specific evidence, so nothing is done from them except with evidence from the Book and the Sunnah. As for transactions, the default ruling is permissibility, except for what evidence indicates is forbidden, such as riba (usury or interest), deception, concealment of defects, lying, and trickery, and other forbidden matters. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
