Exaggeration in the Profit of Goods

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it permissible to exaggerate in the profit of goods, such as if a person buys them for one hundred and then sells them for two hundred, for example?

Answer:
No, this is not permissible. He sells them for what they are worth in the market. The one in authority prevents this. It is not up to him to sell them for whatever he wants and deceive the people. No, he sells them for what they are worth in the market. Yes.
