Purchasing with an interest-bearing loan is forbidden except in cases of necessity, whereas purchasing with permissible financing is allowed. The intention to sell after allocation does not affect the permissibility of the purchase, and selling the apartment is permissible unless the state prohibits it for a public interest. Recommendation (taysir) to guarantee obtaining the apartment is forbidden if it leads to bypassing those who are entitled or prioritizing those who are not entitled.
