When purchasing a product,is it permissible to accept a loan from a third party at a value higher that the principle amount ?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org

Asaw, Respected Mufti saheb, my question is best explained by an example.Person A Wishes to buy a vehicle from B for R100,000, but he does not have enough cash, so person C offers to purchase this vehicle from B for R100,000 and sell it back to A at R3000 per month over 3 years ie a total of R108,000 (R8,000 over the original amount).However if person A did not want the vehicle at all then person C would not have purchased it at all. Is this transaction permissible?

Answer

Respected Brother-in-Islam

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

The purchase and sale agreements between B & C, C & A are valid.

However, C undertakes a risk of purchasing the vehicle from B to sell it to
A as A may decline to purchase the vehicle from C.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best

Random Q&A

About 2 years ago I had very severe problems with doubts in taharah and salat. AlhamduLillah, these times are far away, and I feel myself much more comfortable. But unfortunately now I suffer from some new doubts which appeared recently. The first problem is regarding materials which doesn’t penetrate water. Before wudhu I’m in doubt whether there are some of them on my heels and near nails. For example, if I have few yarns stuck to my heels, I don’t know whether they are synthetic ones (which don’t penetrate water) or not. Because there are just a few yarns, I can’t advocate whether they penetrate water or not. Also sometimes I find hair stuck to my nails or heels, and again I’m in doubt whether it penetrates water or not. Also if I have some dirt, I’m also in doubt whether it contains some small amount of water-not-penetrating materials. So, my wudhu becomes quite a long procedure, where I try to look at my heels and nails thoroughly trying to remove all the dirt, yarns, stuck pieces of hair. The second problem is in washing my face. I know that we can’t wash one limb with water which was used for washing another limb. So the doubt is as follows: if washing the face my palms will touch hair, I start to think, that on my hands there is water which was used washing my hair, not the face, so I wash my hands, and continue washing the face with new water. The other problem is that I don’t know what part of eyes should I wash – I understand that we don’t need to wash eyes themselves, but what’s about the red area which is near roots of eyelashes (above, under, right and left to eyes)?
