If a righteous young man wants to buy something and finds it cheaper from a Shi'ite seller, should he buy from him or not?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If a righteous young man wants to buy something and finds it cheaper from a Shi'ite, meaning a Rafidi, by an amount equivalent to feeding fifty poor people, should he buy from him and feed them to earn reward, or does he have the option?
The Shaykh : He should buy from him. What is the obstacle? If the price were the same, he would buy from him, because dealing with non-Muslims is permissible, whether they are Jews, disbelievers, or Shi'ites. Especially if the price is lower, he can utilize the difference between the two prices, as mentioned in the question, for doing good to some of the Muslims. Yes.
The questioner : So, is there a clause here that he should stay away from the Shi'ite's profits?
The questioner : The answer has been given. Yes.
