Is it permissible to invest entrusted money, with a guarantee to return the amount to its owner upon request, even if the investment incurs a loss?

It is not permissible to dispose of a trust without the owner's permission. Whoever does so is sinful and guarantees its value in case of loss. The ability to return it does not permit its disposal without the owner's permission.
