What is the ruling on a seller stipulating a specific purchase amount to obtain a discount?
It is permissible for the shop owner to offer discounts on prices when purchases reach a certain value, as these reductions fall under the category of leniency and benefiting people. Any price agreed upon by both parties for the commodity makes the sale permissible. Selling goods for less than the market price is permissible according to the majority of scholars. There is no harm in selling an item for less than its usual price or value if the buyer agrees to it. Some contemporary scholars stipulate that this should not harm other merchants, while still allowing it as long as it does not lead to something forbidden, such as deceiving buyers or harming other sellers.
