What is the ruling on tawarruq and installment sales?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the difference between the issue of tawarruq and sale by installments?
The Shaykh : Tawarruq, no, in these countries they expand on the issue in an unpraiseworthy way!
The questioner : How do we know why?
The Shaykh : Because it involves cooperation in evil, is that not so?
The questioner : It involves exploitation, it involves entering the door of riba through the door of partnerships?
The Shaykh : That is it, cooperation in evil, and Allah says:[Al-Ma'idah 5:2] , anything that involves cooperation in evil is not permissible because the cause is given the ruling of the effect.
The questioner : It is permissible for us and we study it in the schools as being permissible, and it is?
The Shaykh : I used to and still think of you as other than what I have just heard, hehehe. As long as you are with me that cooperation in evil is not permissible, then your resorting to the madhhab of Ahmad, if it is correct, does this benefit us in the matter?
The questioner : I did not resort to the madhhab of Ahmad in this reality, I am explaining to you what the reality is?
The Shaykh : I know the reality, that is why I told you the people of this country, hehe. Our Lord, Mighty and Majestic, has bestowed upon us many blessings, not only the material ones that are known, but even those that are not in the caravan nor in the raid, but also in the spiritual religious blessings. But despite that, there are impurities that mix with these good things, among them the expansion in installment sales and the expansion in tawarruq, this and the like.
The questioner : And declaring those who abandon prayer to be disbelievers.
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed, declaring them disbelievers, that they declare the Muslims who are lax in prayer to be disbelievers, while knowing that the hadiths of intercession are explicit that Allah orders the removal of whoever has the weight of an atom of faith in his heart, and in some of them, as in the two Sahihs, the removal of whoever does not pray. Do you know this hadith? I do not think you know it?
The questioner : I do not know, but we fear the Fire and falling into it, we ask Allah that we do not fall into it!
The Shaykh : That is another discussion, this is a digression.
The questioner : And we advise the youth and direct them to what keeps them away from the Fire.
The Shaykh : It is not permissible for you to say "we" because you are singling out yourself for this good, because this is a matter in which all Muslims, all scholars, and all students of knowledge share, but we are speaking about creed... .

The Shaykh : That is it, cooperation in evil, and Allah says:
And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression
وتعاونوا على البر والتقوى ولا تعانوا على الإثم والعدوانThe questioner : It is permissible for us and we study it in the schools as being permissible, and it is?
