Selling the necklace for more than the requested price
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah grant you success. A woman says: I have an aunt who sells gold. She told me, “Take this necklace and sell it.” The people who want to buy it said, “Sell it for eight hundred and fifty riyals. If it weighs more than that price, sell it for the extra amount.” It came out to more than eight hundred and fifty, and I sold it. Is there anything on me, Honorable Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
What?
The questioner:
The buyers asked for eight hundred and fifty, and she sold it for more and took the extra.
The Shaykh:
No, she does not take the extra unless they give her permission, because this is the price of their gold. So she does not take the extra unless they give her permission, unless they say, “Sell it for such-and-such, and if there is any extra, it is yours.” In that case, there is no harm.
