Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, I love you for the sake of Allah the Exalted, and my question is: What is the ruling on purchasing after the Farewell Tawaf?
The Shaykh:
Love for the sake of Allah is among the greatest acts of drawing near to Him, so we say, “May Allah love you, the One who made us love Him.” We ask Allah for all of you to make us among those who love one another for His sake. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that Allah will say on the Day of Resurrection:Sahih Muslim 2566? Therefore, mutual love among the believers for the sake of Allah is a necessary matter. Part of loving one another for the sake of Allah is advising one another in truth, giving one another sincere counsel, and cooperating in righteousness and piety. Yes, Shu'aynah.
The questioner:
What is the ruling on purchasing after the Arrival Tawaf?
The Shaykh:
Or purchasing after the Farewell Tawaf, there is no harm in it, especially for one's needs, whether for the journey there or the journey back. As for purchasing for trade, some scholars hold that one should refrain from that for the sake of trade, but the correct view is that there is no harm. If he purchases for trade, it does not harm him. The Farewell Tawaf is with you; if he purchases on his way and comes across goods for trade, or buys a car, or buys necessities as gifts for his family, or his neighbors, or his relatives, or buys provisions for the journey, all of this is permissible. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.

Where are those who have mutual love for My Glory's sake? Today I shall shelter them in My shadow when there is no other shadow but the shadow of Mine.
