Is it permissible to import honey and sell it first, then pay its price to the supplier from the profits?

The ruling is based on the agreed-upon transaction with the honey owner. If the transaction involves purchasing honey and deferring payment until a known date, then there is no objection to that. It is also permissible to agree with him that you act as his agent in selling the honey for a fixed amount or a percentage of the profit.
