Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on one who sells land for a deferred price, then pledges the land until its value is paid, and then delivers it to the buyer?

Answer:
It is permissible to pledge the sold item as security for its price, whether it is land or something else. If you sell a commodity for a deferred price, it is permissible to pledge it as security for its price, or for a debt or something else. Yes.
