Selling Goods Before Taking Possession of Them and Inspecting Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some merchants buy goods and then do not take possession of them or inspect them; rather, they sell them directly. Is that permissible for them?

Answer:
Taking possession is required. It is not permissible for him to sell them until he takes possession of them in an appropriate manner, and knows them, their quantity, their quality, and their defects. Yes.
