Ruling on taking part of the amount with the rest deferred
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I asked the owner of a store to exchange five hundred riyals for me, but he could not find anything but one hundred riyals. Is it permissible for me to take this amount on the condition that he exchanges the remainder of the amount for me later?
Answer:
No, this is a separation before the receipt of the exchange. You did not receive anything but part of it, so this is not valid. Go to someone else, take your coins, and go exchange them with someone else.
