Selling land before taking possession of it

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: A man bought a piece of land through a real estate office and paid the deposit to the owner of the office. While the sale contract was being written, he says—may Allah forgive you—a man bought a piece of land through a real estate office and paid the deposit to the owner of the office, and while the sale contract was being written, one of the people sitting in the office said to him, “You are making a profit of fifty riyals per meter, so leave this land to me.” The question is: What is the ruling on the sale by the first buyer?

Answer:
It is not permissible to sell it until he takes possession of it, until he receives it. If he buys a piece of land, a house, or an orchard, it is not permissible for him to sell it until he takes possession of it by going to it, knowing its boundaries, and knowing its location, and then he sells it after taking possession and receiving it. Yes.
