Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A companion called to convey his greetings to you and tasked me with asking you a question. The question, my Shaykh, is this: The newspaper *Al-Dustur*, the well-known daily newspaper.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : It issued a contest and allocated a car, a dealer model from 1993, as a prize for whoever answers the questions. The questioner says that one of his acquaintances wrote all the answers, then sent them to the newspaper, and sent other letters with the names of other people, so that if this one succeeded, that one would succeed, and so on.
The Shaykh : What is this jumbled question?!
The questioner : I mean, he gave the answer under more than one name.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : And he sent it as if ten people, for example, had sent the correct answer, while he himself is just one person, like his cousin, his brother, their neighbor’s son, and so on.
The Shaykh : Well, he wrote...
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : ... . .
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Will they win the car?
The questioner : Yes, the questioner says that, of course, a condition was set.
The Shaykh : Yes?
The questioner : He says he stipulated that he told so-and-so, he said to him, "So-and-so, look, I—after writing his name—told him, 'So-and-so, I wrote your name and sent it to the newspaper.'" He said, "Okay, and if the prize comes out to you?" He said, "No, you won’t take it; rather, out of your generosity, out of your generosity, meaning he will give a reward, he will give something." He says that this is what actually happened: one of the names he wrote won, won the car. So now there is a disagreement between them; both are brothers in the commitment of Islamic brotherhood. So he asks, what is the solution now? Does the car belong to the first one and the other actually receives a reward, or is it split equally, or what is the answer you see?
The Shaykh : We need to know what type of contest it is.
The questioner : The contest, my Shaykh, consists of questions about the elections. I had, of course, read them while browsing the newspaper a few days ago and found this contest: questions about the elections. Let me describe how it was: everything related to the elections, like how to vote, who is running, and so on, meaning about the general atmosphere of the elections.
The Shaykh : I must look at the questions.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : I fear there may be a violation in it.
The questioner : The same questions, yes, meaning let us suppose now that this image is in a contest that you see as a prize.
The Shaykh : ... .
The Shaykh : Yes.
