Salam is one of the permissible types of sale. It is the sale of a described item held in trust, with payment given immediately. It is stipulated that the item being sold (the muslam fihi) must be deferred to a known term according to the majority of scholars, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Whoever pays in advance for something, let him pay in advance for a known measure or a known weight until a known term." The Shafi'is, however, permit immediate salam.
