Such a transaction is valid if it is a salam sale. Among its most important conditions are that the commodity must be precisely describable, a known term must be specified for delivering the commodity to the buyer, and the full price must be paid at the contracting session. The purchase of goods, or part of them, with the client's money does not affect the validity of the sale. It is also valid for the transaction to be an agency on behalf of the buyer for a known fee.
