The answer

If the questioner intends to buy a car and then sell it to his company based on a promise from the project manager, this is permissible and falls under Murabaha (cost-plus sale) for the one who commands the purchase, provided that the questioner is not acting as an agent for the company in its purchase.

As for the company's promise, the majority of jurists hold that it is not binding, while the Malikis view it as binding if the one promised enters into an obligation because of it.

The questioner must inform the company if the car has any legal violations; because failure to inform is considered deception, and the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever deceives is not from me."
