Is it permissible to sell goods purchased from Asian countries immediately upon their arrival at the port, without inspecting or seeing them?
This transaction falls under the category of buying and selling something unseen, which is permissible if it is described in a way that removes ignorance (about its nature) and if the purchased item is taken possession of in a sharia-compliant manner. As soon as the purchased item arrives at the port of delivery and the buyer receives the shipping documents, this is considered sharia-compliant possession, and he is permitted to sell the imported goods without seeing them.
