Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: There are four people who wish to purchase a car on installment. Is it permissible to agree to appoint one of them to buy the car, and then divide the amount among them equally?
Answer:
If they agree that they are partners and appoint him to buy it for them, appointing him to buy it for them, there is nothing wrong with that. Likewise, if he buys it for himself and then makes them partners in it, buys it for himself and then makes them partners in it, there is nothing wrong with that, if they agree to this and each commits to his installment, there is no blame on them. Yes.
