The Ruling on Selling Land to a Disbeliever

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah forgive you. You want to sell land. May Allah reward you with Paradise. Regarding another woman whose husband does not treat her well, she asks: Is it permissible for me to sell this land or not?

The Shaykh:
And what is her situation with her husband? If the woman asks, does she pray with him? He sells to the disbeliever, and to the disbeliever. Yes.

The questioner:
He does not pray.

The Shaykh:
I say that selling to a disbeliever is not prevented; selling is not restricted to Muslims.

The questioner:
Let us finish this.

The Shaykh:
I say it is not restricted to what is called selling. If she sells to a disbeliever who is a hostile enemy but has been granted safe conduct, there is nothing wrong with that.
