Paying for an item in installments

Q: I am in need of money. If I buy something like a mobile phone on installments and then I sell it because I need the money, and pay the installments every month, is it permissible or does it come under interest?

A: It is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
