The Shaykh : A man says: I bought two items and paid the price. I received one of them, and I will receive the other after ten days. If prices rise, what is obligatory for the seller and the buyer to do in this situation?
It is obligatory for the seller to deliver the item, as the price has already been received.
The questioner : Should he not demand an increase?
The Shaykh : How?
The questioner : Should he not demand an increase?
The Shaykh : No, no, he should not demand an increase, because it is his property. Do you see, if the item perished, would he be liable for it?
The questioner : No.
The Shaykh : So, whoever bears the loss of a thing also bears its profit.
