Question
Is it permissible for me to exchange my old gold for new gold from the seller before I receive the price of the old gold?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible if there is no separation of the gathering between you and the trader, so the price of the old gold is a debt on his part, and the price of the new gold is a debt on your part, then a judicial offset occurs between you without actual possession, and this is permissible in exchange, and God knows best.
