الشرح المختصر
"Suftajah" (bill of exchange) is a kind of loan that the lender benefits from by avoiding carrying cash while traveling and thus securing himself against the dangers of the journey. A "suftajah" is done in the following way: Person 'A' gives money to person 'B' and asks 'B' to write him a letter of credit in which 'B' authorizes an agent to pay 'A' the money upon showing him the letter once 'A' has safely reached his destination. This transaction was called "suftajah" because of its level of consolidation, as well as the security that it provides to the traveler against the dangers of the journey.
