Is deferred sale with installments permissible?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The sister mentions that she buys and sells women's clothing and tells the buyers: if you take this item for cash, it is five riyals, but if you pay later, it is ten riyals. Is that permissible for her?
The Shaykh : Yes, there is nothing wrong with this, because she is giving her the choice between the two prices, the immediate and the deferred.
The questioner : Yes, some people say if she chooses.
The Shaykh : If the buying woman chooses to take it for the immediate, lower price, there is no blame on her. And if she chooses to take it for the deferred, higher price, there is no blame on her. She has the choice, but she must not leave her place until she has taken it either by this or by that.
The questioner : Yes, praise be to Allah.
