Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 1374/1051/B=11/1434) Just saying وعليك is enough in reply. But if you say هداك الله it shall be a good supplication for him.

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best

Q. Assalamlikum I had a plot of 262 sq.ft., my elder brother told me sell this plot and buy another place (due to some litigation) & sold around Rs.4,97,800/- for this intention to buy another plot in a prime location, more than 6 years back. After selling my elder brother asked for hand loan & I gave hand loan (kharzi hasana) to him Rs.270000/- for 3 month commitment only. Till today I did not get back the money. Even I used hard words after the maturity. He has the money but he is not giving, investing in real estate and earning money with my money. & I am waiting when he will return back my money I will by the plot. Now the land prices are so high & increased 13 to 15 times more in this 6 years timne. Even which I sold the above plot price 15 times increased. Due to block this hand loan money I did not invest the amount in plot. If I invested above sold plot amount in another plot present value will be around Rs.75 to 80 lakhs will get. For this I have lost lakhs of rupees. So requesting to provide me a fatwa above my lakhs of rupees loses. Now how much I have to collect with him? Actual amount or actual amount plus loses. 1200 views
