The Ruling on Buying and Selling via the Internet

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, ever since the internet appeared, I have been buying and selling through it. Is the sale valid in such a case?

Answer:
By Allah, I do not know how the internet works, but buying and selling, as practiced by the Muslims, is by offer and acceptance. The offer is the words spoken by the seller, and the acceptance is the words spoken by the buyer, provided the seven known conditions of sale are met. It is necessary that the seven known conditions of sale are met. Yes.
