The answer

The majority of scholars prohibit the sale of gold jewelry for deferred payment, stipulating immediate possession (qabḍ) at the time of the contract, and this is the relied-upon opinion. However, some scholars from the Hanbali school and others permit it, arguing that manufacturing transforms gold from a currency into a commodity. Since your mother and sister were unaware of the ruling, there is no blame upon them for proceeding with the transaction based on the view of those who validate it.
