The answer

The transaction mentioned is a Murabaha sale for the one who orders the purchase, and it is permissible if it adheres to the Sharia guidelines. There is no harm in selling a commodity for a deferred price that exceeds its spot price. This is not usury (riba) because time has a share in the price, and this is what the majority of scholars have concluded.
