Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) when counting the categories—salt, barley, wheat, and dates—he says:
The Shaykh:
And wheat is barley. Yes.
The questioner:
And barley, dates, and whatever shares the same operative cause as them: Is it permissible for me to purchase them on credit by buying these commodities and deferring the payment of the amount?
The Shaykh:
If it is dirhams that do not differ, and you bought it with something other than food, buying food with something other than food, dirhams that do not differ, yes.
