The Ruling on Intercepting Caravans in the Car Market
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Those who intercept car sellers before they enter the market, and there are very many of them, fall under the ruling of intercepting caravans, Honorable Shaykh?
Answer:
Yes, the bringing in of goods, this bringing in of cars or livestock or anything else, is not to be intercepted. Rather, they are to be left alone until they reach the market and display what they have to the people of the market. The Muslims are to be equal in the profits that are realized and the discounts on goods, and no one among them is to exploit them or get ahead of them to them. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade intercepting caravans, forbade intercepting the bringing in of goods, and forbade a resident from selling to a Bedouin. All of this is for the benefit of the Muslims and to prevent encroaching on their rights. Yes.
