Only paying the supplier when receiving money from the customer
Question
I make payment to my supplier only when my buyer makes payment to me. Once I receive payment from my buyer I make payment to my supplier. Is this transaction acceptable as per our Islamic law?
Answer
The right thing will be to specify a date that within this time the money will be paid.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
