Q41: A commodity is sold by a number of merchants. What is the ruling on purchasing it from a merchant who was selected because he offers special incentives for the work and excludes the others?
A41: Government purchases have a system that specifies the method of purchasing. It is obligatory to adhere to this system and act in accordance with it, provided it does not contradict a ruling of the Shari'ah.
