Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, his companions, and those who follow them with excellence until the Day of Judgment. What do you say, O Abdullah Aamer, if someone sells this item for a thousand dirhams in gold and silver?

The questioner : It is not valid.

The Shaykh : It is not valid. A thousand dirhams in gold and silver?

The questioner : It is not valid.

The Shaykh : It is not valid. Why?

The questioner : It is ambiguous.

The Shaykh : What is the ambiguity?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : He might give him a larger proportion of gold, or the reverse. Okay, a thousand in gold and silver. He did not say a thousand dirhams, he said a thousand in gold and silver? You?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : It is valid and it is an equal division. Okay, it is valid. If he sells the ripe grain, Khalid, if he sells the ripe grain on the stalk or off the stalk but still in the ear, is it valid or not valid?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, standing crop, ripe grain, he sold it on the stalk or sold it separately without the stalk.

The questioner : And it has become ripe?

The Shaykh : Yes, and it is ripe and standing.

The questioner : There is no harm ... .

The Shaykh : In both cases?

The questioner : Yes, in both cases.

The Shaykh : Ubaydullah, is it valid or not valid?

The questioner : It is valid.

The Shaykh : In both cases?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Very well.

The questioner : The second one is not valid ... .

The Shaykh : The second one is not valid. If he sells the grain without the stalk, it is not valid, like the pits in dates. But if he sells the grain on the stalk, it is valid, like dates with their pits. Correct? Yes, that is it. And for this reason, the author’s statement is about ripe grain on the stalk; this condition is necessary. Okay, did he sell it by its number? Did he sell the item by its number? Yes?

The questioner : It is valid.

The Shaykh : It is valid, right? It is known to people, but we do not know about the two parties in the transaction. Yes, meaning he went to the pharmacy, "I want such-and-such medicine," he said, "How much is it?" he said, "According to what is written on it," "I do not know," "The Ministry of Health?"

The questioner : It does not increase.

The Shaykh : The Ministry of Health is the one that wrote the number, the value?

The questioner : This is valid.

The Shaykh : Is it correct?

The questioner : According to the madhhab, it is not valid, and the correct opinion is that it is valid, and there is a detailed opinion in it ... .

The Shaykh : Because he might put a large number on it. Okay, correct. Did you hear the answer? We say if this number is written by the authorities, the responsible officials, there is no harm; this is the price. If it is from the seller, it is not valid because he might put a large number on it. But if we know it, the matter is clear. Okay.
