The answer

If the lender stipulates that you must purchase appliances with this loan, or if he only lends to those who need these appliances, then it is not permissible to resort to deception by providing an invoice for another purpose. The loan must be used for the purpose stipulated, in accordance with the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Muslims are bound by their conditions."
