Question

What is the prohibition of fixation?

Answer

This falls under the category of 'the dust of usury,' where it is forbidden to give money to a seller if the seller does not have the merchandise in his possession. For example, paying a seller for a refrigerator when the refrigerator is not yet in the seller's possession and needs to be ordered from the company.
