Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, a man has a banknote,
The Shaykh:
With him.
The questioner:
a banknote worth five hundred riyals, so he asked another person to exchange it for him, but he gave him only four hundred and fifty riyals, and said the remaining fifty are not with me now, and I will give them to you tomorrow, is this permissible? And what are the conditions of currency exchange?
The Shaykh:
This is not permissible, this is currency exchange, so it is not permissible for anything to remain that is not taken possession of and its possession is expedited, if he does not have the full exchange of the five hundred, he goes to another, there are many shops and many people, he goes to another, exchange it for him.
