Question:
Is it permissible for me to buy a car that was sold to another person on installment, when I am a partner in the showroom?
Answer:
The one who sold it does not buy it back. If you sold it to a person on credit and you are a partner with the one who sold it to him on credit, then you do not buy it, because you have already sold it on credit. This is the issue of 'inah (a buy-back sale used to disguise a loan). Whoever sells a commodity for a deferred price, whether the commodity belongs to him alone or he has partners with him, it is not permissible for him to buy it back, because this is the issue of 'inah. He buys it for less than its price in cash. This is the issue of 'inah, whether the car belongs to him exclusively or is shared.
