Summary
Malik says the difference between a man not selling except what he has, and a man advancing payment for something whose origin he does not have, is that the owner of inah brings his gold he intends to buy with, and says: here are ten dinars; what do you want me to buy for you with them? It is as if he sold ten dinars cash for fifteen dinars on a term. That is why this was disliked; it is a trick and a deception. 1
