What is the ruling on dealing with a man who agreed with a chicken farm owner that he would give him money to buy feed in large quantities at a price of 6,0 EGP per ton, and the farm owner would then sell it to himself at a price of 6,500 EGP, after which the profit would be divided equally, with the owner of the money being absent from the buying and selling operations?
The correct transaction is for the owner of the capital to purchase the feed for 6000 [currency unit] and take possession and ownership of it, then sell it to the chicken owner for 6250 [currency unit] or at the agreed-upon price. If the owner of the capital is busy, he should appoint someone other than the chicken owner to avoid any suspicion of usury (riba).
