Discussion of the option of stipulation in currency exchange.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The author remained silent on matters that passed through the option of the meeting but did not mention them, such as?
The questioner : Prayer.
The Shaykh : No, currency exchange. He mentioned that it is established in sales but did not mention that it is established in currency exchange here. Why? They said because it is required in currency exchange that possession be exchanged before parting; possession must be exchanged before parting. So the condition of the option contradicts that; it contradicts this. But the correct view is that it is established in currency exchange, and we say: take possession before parting, and it remains in your hands according to what you stipulated. So either you confirm the sale or you annul it, due to the generality of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his saying Sunan Ibn Majah 2521Sahih (Darussalam).
Now the time for questions has arrived. Mahjub?
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah bless you, the issue of the earnest money, oh Shaykh?
The Shaykh : What?

The Shaykh : The earnest money has passed; let us leave it, it has been a long time.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Do you have ten days to ask?
The questioner : No, I mean...
The Shaykh : Very well.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.
