18. ARGUMENTS ON PROHIBITED (cont.)
“Ali (r.a) has stated: Ibn Musa has said that this is
what we have been told by Hushaim. The prophet
PBUH has said ‘A time is certainly coming to
mankind when people will bite each other and a
rich man will hold fast what he has in his
possession (his property), though he was not
commanded for that. Allah the almighty said:
(and do not forget liberality between yourself)
and those who are forced will contract sale while
the prophet PBUH forbade forced contract, one
which involves some uncertainty and the sale of
fruit before it is ripe’”

19. ARGUMENT ON PERMISSIBILITY
“Allah has permitted sale and prohibited riba”
(Al-Qur’an – 2:275)
Hanbali and many other scholars permitted Al-Tawarruq
Dr.Rafik Yunus al-misri
- If all the three parties involved have known that the main
objective of the customer fro entering the tawarruq transaction
is to obtain the cash money, then all of them are sinful.
- if the two of the parties have known that the seller has used
the transaction for get the cash, both of them are sinful.
However, if they do not know the real intention of the
seller, then they are not sinful.
- A person is allowed to do tawarruq in the case of necessity.
