Is it permissible to sell a mobile phone that has a camera?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is permissible to sell a camera that comes with a mobile phone if it is known or highly probable that the buyer will use it for permissible purposes. It is not permissible to sell it to someone who is known or highly probable to use it for impermissible purposes. If the buyer's intention is unknown, then the prevailing use of the device in the country should be considered. This applies to the sale of mobile phones, televisions, video players, cosmetics, women's clothing, and everything that can be used for both good and evil.
