Question
When is the contract (transaction) between a buyer and seller definitive?
Answer
Muhtaram / Muhtaramah
In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.
Once the buyer agrees to the purchase price, the deal between the parties is concluded and the sale definitive.
And Allah knows best
