The Meaning of the Hadith: The Two Parties to a Sale Have the Option Until They Part Ways

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the hadith
The two parties to a transaction have the choice (of annulling it) so long as they have not yet parted.البيعان بالخيار ما لم يتفرقا،
Sunan Ibn Majah 2182Sahih (Darussalam)
what is derived from this, and what is its meaning?

Answer:
What is derived from the hadith is the option of the meeting place, the establishment of the option of the meeting place. If the sale is completed by offer and acceptance, then each of them has the option as long as they are in the meeting place, in order to consider his matter. And if he sees that he has been deceived or that he does not need the commodity, he may withdraw; he has that right. So if they separate from the meeting place, then the sale becomes binding at that time. Yes.
