Regarding the Social Affairs Department: there are people who buy from it, and they have five hundred or a thousand heads of sheep. Is it permissible for this man to buy from the Social Affairs Department?
The Shaykh:
It is permissible for him, except under the condition set by the state. The condition set by the state must be adhered to. If he lies, then it is forbidden for the one who takes it. If he lies and says he is poor while he is lying, it is forbidden for him.
