The Difference Between a Sale on Credit and a Loan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Bakr, may Allah make you truthful, what is the difference between a sale on credit and a loan that yields a benefit?

Answer:
It is not this loan; this is a sale. A sale is a sale, and a loan is a loan. What does this have to do with that? A loan is when someone is in need, and you give him an amount to benefit from, and he returns the equivalent to you. It is a contract of kindness, not a contract of trade. A sale is a contract of trade in which profit is sought, whereas a loan is a contract of kindness and benevolence. It is not prepared for dwelling, but only for reward. It is like a loan for use; a loan is exactly like a loan for use. Yes.
