The ruling on selling land before receiving the price
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, the questioner says: I bought a piece of land without paying its price, then I sold it to another person with an increase in the amount. After I received the money from the buyer, I took the interest, and I gave the rest to the owner of the land. What is the ruling on this action?
Answer:
If you bought it and took possession of it, and you took it by giving it to you, then you may sell it, and its price is yours, not the seller's. The seller took its price from you. But if there remained in the land something on which the sale did not take place, then that belongs to the seller. You only sell what you own of the land. Yes.
