Question: 

What is the ruling on selling items and making profit from it, specifically selling the item[s] for more than you purchased it for?

Answer:

When I went to Madeenah, I asked Shaykh Ali an-Nasir al-Faqeeh that question for a brother. He, may Allaah preserve him, mentioned it is permissible since that it is mostly intended from buying and selling.

And Allah says:

أحل الله البيع وحرم الربا

Allah has permitted sale and prohibited interest/usury

[2:275]
