Showing the defects of the commodity


A: If you entered into the transaction of this land to buy or rent it, the person mentioned in the question knew about this, and the owner inclined to you. It is not permissible for them to buy or rent this land. This is because doing so involves entering into a transaction when one's brother has already entered into it and this was forbidden by the Prophet (peace be upon him). However, if the person mentioned in the question did not know that you had entered into the transaction, and he entered into the transaction before or after the owner had inclined to sell or rent the land to you; it is permissible for him to buy, rent or retain the land. (Part No. 13; Page No. 119)  May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
