Facilitation of on-credit sale

Q 9: Am I a sinner if I facilitate the process of a debt? For example, I sell a car to a person who wants to sell it on credit and he leaves it in my car agency to sell it. Please keep in mind that it is sold several times from a creditor to a debtor.


A: Whoever does this while knowing the purchaser's intention is a sinner (Part No. 13; Page No. 245) for this entails cooperation in doing something that is prohibited which is selling goods before they are received by the purchaser. The seller is a sinner for the Messenger (peace be upon him) forbade completing a transaction before the sold goods are received by the purchaser. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
