11. If a person has made an offer to purchase and the seller is inclined to concluding the deal, then it is impermissible for anyone else to make an offer over the offer of the purchaser. This has been prohibited in the Hadith. However, if the seller is not inclined to the offer, then it is permissible for others to make an offer to purchase. An auction sale is excluded from this rule. Hence, it is permissible for many people to bid to purchase an item at the same time. [1]

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “A Muslim should not make an offer to purchase over the offer of his brother (i.e. in the case where the seller is inclined towards concluding the deal).” [2]

Hazrat Ibnu Umar (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma) reports that Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “One should not place an offer to purchase something over the offer of his Muslim brother (i.e. in the case where the purchaser and seller are inclined towards concluding the sale), nor should he send a proposal over the proposal of his Muslim brother (when both parties are inclined towards the nikaah), except if he retracts from the proposal himself, or gives him permission to do so.” [3]


[1] قال: (ونهى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عن النجش) وهو أن يزيد في الثمن ولا يريد الشراء ليرغب غيره وقال: لا تناجشوا. قال: (وعن السوم على سوم غيره) قال عليه الصلاة والسلام: لا يستم الرجل على سوم أخيه ولا يخطب على خطبة أخيه ولأن في ذلك إيحاشا وإضرارا وهذا إذا تراضى المتعاقدان على مبلغ ثمنا في المساومة فأما إذا لم يركن أحدهما إلى الآخر فهو بيع من يزيد ولا بأس به على ما نذكره وما ذكرناه محمل النهي في النكاح أيضا (الهداية 3/53)
