The answer

This transaction is a trick for a usurious loan, and it is not permissible to proceed with it except in cases of necessity. What was mentioned is not a necessity. If it is possible to borrow without interest or earn money through a permissible means, then praise be to Allah. Otherwise, one should be patient, seek Allah's help, and rely on Him, in accordance with His saying, the Almighty: "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out And will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever relies upon Allah - then He is sufficient for him."
