The answer

What you mentioned about the transaction is not enough to rule on it, due to an incomplete understanding of it. However, among the conditions for its permissibility are that the bank must fully own the commodity and take possession of it before selling it to the one who orders its purchase, and there must be no condition stipulating a penalty for late payment of installments. Organized Tawarruq is impermissible, and it is not permissible to agree in the contract to repay the debt in another currency.
