Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fourth question of Fatwa No. ( 6753 )
Q4: Is it permissible to sell gold on a shur , meaning: if the customer buys jewelry, he says, "I am taking it on a shur; if it suits me, I will keep it, otherwise I will return it and take something else." What is the ruling on that?
A4: It is permissible for the buyer to take the gold from its owner to consult someone he trusts among the experts regarding its purchase. If the expert advises him to buy it, he returns to the owner to finalize the purchase contract with him, and the exchange of the two items is completed in the session of the contract, if they are of gold or silver.
