Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man asked another to look for a car and buy it for him, then sell it to him for a deferred price with an increase in the price. Is there any harm in this, if the contract was only concluded after he had full ownership of the car and then sold it?
Answer:
If it is for the one in need, there is nothing wrong with it. But if the contract and agreement were finalized and the man did not have the car, and then he went out based on that to look for the car, this is not permissible. This is selling what one does not own.
