I bought something from the open market, then I wanted to sell it. Am I required to move it from its location?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: If one attends the open market for dates, buys from what is being sold there, and then wants to sell it, is he required to move it from its location?

Answer:
Yes, moving it is undoubtedly the safer course, as it constitutes complete possession. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade selling goods at the place where they are bought until the merchants take them to their homes. This is undoubtedly more complete. If he sells it in its place after securing and taking possession of it, this is weak or incomplete possession, but the sale is valid with this. Yes.
