Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A person bought a car through a lease-to-own contract, and he did not know the ruling at the time. What is obligatory for him now?
Answer:
He must negotiate with the one who sold it to him and say, “This contract is not permissible; the contract is not valid.” They should negotiate with him and conclude a new, valid contract.
