The ruling on the loss of money sent by the depositary to the owner of the money
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Yahya. We will show you: if a depositary sends the money to its owner with a person, and the money is stolen on the way, is he liable?
The Shaykh : Was it at the request of the owner?
The questioner : Social media channels.
The Shaykh : All right, is it customary for this person to act as the man’s representative, meaning like his servant or his son or something similar?
The questioner : No, he is not a servant except my mother.
The Shaykh : He is liable. However, if it was his servant or his son or someone it is customary to give it to, he is not liable, because his hand is like the hand of the master.
