Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I say, Honorable Shaykh, is there a lesson tomorrow at the Mosque of Shaykh al-Islam?
The Shaykh:
I have no news of that; I do not know. Yes.
The questioner:
The Noble Qur'an.
The Shaykh:
And there is nothing in what was announced. Yes.
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if I go to a shop owner wanting to exchange one hundred riyals, and he says, “If you buy from me, I will exchange for you,”
The Shaykh:
Is this sale and exchange permissible? He said: I will exchange it for you on the condition that you buy from me. This is two sales, and it is one sale.
The questioner:
And if that is in itself.
The Shaykh:
If there is no condition, for what is in the hearts is known only to Allah. If there is no apparent condition, then in transactions, one looks at the apparent, and does not look at what is in the hearts. Yes.
