Is Accepting Traveller’s Cheques as Cash Jaaiz in Islam?

Answered by 

Shaykh Ebrahim Salejee

Q: A person comes to my shop with a traveller’s cheque (a traveller’s cheque is considered as cash because it is bought in lieu of cash) worth R5000 and he buys items worth 1000 and I take that check and give him 4000 back. Will this transaction be jaaiz?

Bismillaah

A: It is permissible.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
