Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : They use another method.
The Shaykh : And it is.
The questioner : And that is that the seller appoints an agent here in Algeria, and the buyer does the same. So the buyer goes to the seller, for example, in France, and they call the seller's agent in the same assembly at the same time. The seller says, "I am now, at this very moment, speaking on the phone to the agent who is in Algeria. I am telling him, 'I am now in France, and I am about to give him, or he is about to give me, the amount in French francs. You, right now, will give the one you appointed the amount in Algerian dinars.' So they are speaking on the phone at the same time. Do we say that the assembly is unified?
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : The assembly is unified.
The Shaykh : In this manner, yes.
The questioner: May Allah reward you with good, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And beware, perhaps you are full.
The questioner: Yes, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Perhaps you are full of questions?
The questioner : Shaykh, for the first time, and may it repeat, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Welcome, welcome. More and more of the good.
The questioner : May Allah reward you, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And may He reward you.
The questioner : Shaykh, may I ask about health?
The Shaykh : What are you asking about?
The questioner : About your health.
The Shaykh : My health, you hear my voice.
The questioner : Yes, Shaykh, I did not hear.
The Shaykh : My health.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : My voice and my answers will inform you about it.
The questioner : Praise be to Allah.
The Shaykh: Hehehe.
The questioner : May Allah prolong your life, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
The questioner: And you as well, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Welcome.
The questioner : ... Another opportunity to call you, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh: And you are well, if Allah wills.
The questioner: May Allah reward you with good, Shaykh.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : The time is always this.
The Shaykh : Yes, this is it. Now, right now, at this moment, the time has ended.
The questioner : The time has ended.
The Shaykh : That is: at eight o'clock exactly, the time ends.
The questioner : Yes, it is now seven o'clock exactly for us in Algeria.
The Shaykh : Yes, there is a one-hour difference now.
The questioner : Yes, at eight o'clock, the time for questions ends?
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : When does it start, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : At six o'clock.
The questioner : Six o'clock.
The Shaykh : Six o'clock means the time for questions is two hours.
The questioner : Yes, Shaykh, may Allah reward you, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And may He reward you.
The questioner : And may Allah the Exalted preserve you.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings and His forgiveness.
The Shaykh : And it is.
