WHAT IS SALE?

COMPONENTS OF VALID SALE
SALE

• 4-Some traders do some light mending on clothes, then they sell
them without explaining that they have been mended, rather they
swear by Allah that they are new – may they perish!
• 5-Some of them may wear a garment until it loses its value, then
they shorten it and put some starch in it, to make people think that
it is new, and they sell it as if it is new.
• 6-Some perfume-sellers put some products, such as saffron, near
water so that they may absorb the moisture, thus increasing the
weight by approximately one-third.
• 7-Some vendors and shopkeepers make their stores very dark by
using coloured lights, so that rough products will look smooth and
ugly ones will look beautiful. The Shaytaan makes their evil deeds
attractive to them.
• 8-Some goldsmiths mix gold with copper and the like, then they sell
it as if it is pure gold.
• 9-Some of them buy clean second-hand gold, then they offer it for
sale at the price of new without telling the purchaser that it is
second-hand.

• 10-Some vendors at car auctions put thick oil in the car engine so
that the purchaser will think that it is in good condition.
• 11-Some of them turn back the odometer, if it shows that the car
has traveled a great distance, to trick the purchaser into thinking
that the car has only been used a little.
• 12-Some of them, if they have a car that they want to sell and they
know that it has a hidden fault, will say to the one who wants to
buy it, “Try this car if you want to buy it,” without telling him
anything about it. By Allah, this is cheating and deceit.
• 13-Some of them describe many faults in the car which are not real,
with the intention of concealing the real faults of the vehicle
behind these imaginary faults.
• Even worse than that is when they do not mention the faults until
after the sale has been made and the deposit paid, and the
purchaser is not able to inspect the car and is not allowed to do so.

• 14-Some of them, if they have a car that they want to sell,
will praise it and swear by Allaah that it is good, and they
will fabricate reasons why they want to sell it, but Allaah
knows all secrets and that which is yet more hidden.
• 15-Some of them agree with their friends to increase the
price so that someone else will take it. This is the najsh
(artificial inflation of prices) which the Messenger of Allaah
SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade.
• 16-Another kind of cheating in selling is when butchers
inflate the animal carcass that they want to sell so that the
purchaser will think that it is all meat.
• 17-Some vendors at sheep auctions and places where
chickens are sold feed the animals salt [to make them drink
more and thus look fatter], so that the purchaser will think
that they are fat when they are not.
