Selling to an Arab whom security will not allow to enter
Question
An Arab is willing to buy my leavened food.
I know that security will not allow him to enter the Jewish community during the holiday.
Is that acceptable?
Answer
In my opinion, yes, because you are selling him the leavened food permanently and not for a limited time, and you do not know whether they will never allow him to enter. After Passover he sells it back to you. Beyond that, if he wants to buy it without being able to use it, that is his choice.
