Question:
If a person pays the price of a car and buys it, but it remains in the seller's possession or in the showroom and is damaged, does it carry the ruling of a calamity (jā'ihah)?

Answer:
No, this is the property of the buyer; it was damaged while in the buyer's ownership. The calamity (jā'ihah) applies to fruits, my brother; it does not apply to cars, lands, or houses. No, it applies specifically to fruits.
