The answer

It is not permissible to enter into the aforementioned transaction because it is usury (riba), which involves lending a sum of money with an increment. However, it is permissible to sell the sheep to him after purchasing and possessing them, agreeing on a specific price. Profit from selling is permissible, unlike profit from a loan. Alternatively, the money can be given to him as a legitimate Mudarabah (profit-sharing partnership) with a common share of the profit, not a fixed amount, provided that the working partner does not guarantee the principal.
