The Ruling on Delaying the Return of the Remaining Price and Riba al-Nasi'ah (usury of deferment)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: If I buy something and the seller does not have enough to give me the change, and I delay paying him until another time, does this fall under riba (usury or interest), specifically riba al-nasi'ah (usury of deferment)?
Answer:
If the seller does not have currency, exchange the money with someone else and pay him, so that you get out of the difficulty. Or promise him that you will bring him the amount. Either he will wait and you will bring him the amount, or you will exchange it with someone else and pay him. Yes.
