Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for a seller to condition the buyer to use the sold item only for permissible matters? Is it permissible for the seller to condition the buyer to use the item only for permissible matters if the item is used for both?
Answer:
It is not permissible to sell it to one who is known to use it for what is forbidden; it is not permissible to sell it to him. Selling it is forbidden. Selling it to a person who uses it for what is forbidden is like selling grapes to one who makes wine from them, or it is not permissible to sell him grapes while knowing that he makes wine from them. Yes.
