Postponement of Gold Payment

Question
A lady bought gold for a certain amount and paid the jeweler an incomplete amount. The jeweler agreed to postpone this amount for several days. Is this permissible?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is not permissible to delay the price or part of it in the sale of gold; because it is necessary to take possession in the session, so the contract is valid for what is taken and invalid for what is not taken, and they have fallen into usury with this transaction, and God knows best.
