Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it valid for an agent to purchase for himself at a price higher than the market rate?
Answer:
No. Even if it were. It is not permissible for him to purchase it for himself, because of what he would gain from its sale. Rather, he should sell it to someone else, and to someone other than his children or those in whose rights he is suspected of wrongdoing. Yes, may Allah protect the mosque.
The presenter:
Yes.
