Buying and Selling via the Internet
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, this questioner says: In our present time, means of communication such as computers and the internet have become widespread. Some people want to buy and sell through the internet. What is the legal ruling?
Answer:
So buying and selling is done through the form of the contract: the offer (ijab) from the seller and the acceptance (qabul) from the buyer. The words coming from the seller, for example, saying "I sold," this is the offer. And saying "I bought" or "I accepted," this is the acceptance from the buyer. When this is completed, the sale is established. Yes.
