The answer

The Murabaha sale to a purchasing agent is permissible in principle if it adheres to the -compliant controls. These include that the sale must occur after the commodity enters the ownership of the agent and after valid possession (qabd) has taken place. Furthermore, the promise can be binding religiously and legally in certain cases, and promising is permissible with the condition of an option for both parties to the promise. It is not a requirement for the transfer of ownership of a car or similar item that it be registered in the bank's name; rather, valid possession is sufficient by moving it from its place or by giving access (takhliya), such as handing over the keys and documents.
