The answer

Murabaha for the one who commands the purchase is permissible if the bank buys the required tools and takes possession of them, then sells them to the customer on a deferred or installment basis at a price exceeding the purchase price. However, if the bank does not possess these tools, it is impermissible, because in that case, it would be a loan with interest, which is usury (riba).
