What is the ruling on purchasing foreign currency before the time for paying the price of the imported goods arrives, in anticipation of expected harm?

The questioner : ... For example, suppose I sold goods to Zuhair on credit, and I need to import them for him. Their value today in Jordanian currency is ten thousand. I want to ensure that the price remains the same because I have calculated my account... So I went and bought this currency and kept it with me, so that when the payment becomes due in a few months, I will have neither lost nor gained. I calculated my account knowing its value today. This is not trading, even though I bought it in advance...

The Shaykh : Here, the situation is completely different from the scenarios we were discussing... On the contrary, this is a precaution to avoid falling into a problem that violates the Shari'ah.
