If the bank sells you the commodity with a valid sale after acquiring ownership of it, and then sells it to you in installments, the contract is valid if its conditions are met; otherwise, it is not valid. If the second loan is a benevolent loan () with no interest, there is no objection; otherwise, it is forbidden, and you are only required to return the principal. Buying soap and selling it in installments is permissible, and owning its profits is lawful.
