Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does this form fall under the two offers in a sale that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited, which is when a person says to another, “I will sell you this car for seventy-five thousand, or in installments for ninety-five thousand”?
Answer:
A contract concluded in this manner must be definitive, either deferred or immediate. The contract must be for something definite; one cannot be given the choice between this and that. Yes.
