Question:
May Allah reward you. The honorable questioner says: What is the ruling on subscribing to religious cultural magazines for the next two years when they are not currently available? And what is the ruling on contracts and agreements when the agreed-upon materials, such as iron and others, are not available?
Answer:
This is the debt of salam. This is like salam, where you buy a described item that is secured by its description, and you pay its value immediately in the contract session. It is permissible to advance the price and defer the item, provided the item is secured by its description and does not vary. This is the debt of salam. Yes. Whether it is taken in one lump sum or in installments, this is a salam sale, and it is permissible. Yes.
