The ruling on selling a house with the condition of buying it back after several years

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The brother 'Abid, from the questions in this question, says: Honorable Shaykh, is this sale valid, as some of the brothers have used it? He says: I sell you the house for two hundred thousand riyals, and after five years I will buy it from you for three hundred thousand riyals. Is this sale valid?

Answer:
This is not permissible. This is two sales in one sale, which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade. You sell it to him on the condition that he buys it back from you after two years. Is this conditional sale valid, or is it not permissible?
