حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل وَاحِدٌ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ الْمَعْنَى ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَبِيعُ الْإِبِلَ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّنَانِيرِ وَآخُذُ الدَّرَاهِمَ وَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ وَآخُذُ الدَّنَانِيرَ ، آخُذُ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ وَأُعْطِي هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ ، فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِ حَفْصَةَ ، فَقُلْتُ : " يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، رُوَيْدَكَ أَسْأَلُكَ إِنِّي أَبِيعُ الْإِبِلَ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّنَانِيرِ ، وَآخُذُ الدَّرَاهِمَ ، وَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ ، وَآخُذُ الدَّنَانِيرَ آخُذُ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ ، وَأُعْطِي هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَهَا بِسِعْرِ يَوْمِهَا مَا لَمْ تَفْتَرِقَا وَبَيْنَكُمَا شَيْءٌ " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: I used to sell camels at al-Baqi for dinars and take dirhams for them, and sell for dirhams and take dinars for them. I would take these for these and give these for these. I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who was in the house of Hafsah. I said: Messenger of Allah, take it easy, I shall ask you (a question): I sell camels at al-Baqi'. I sell (them) for dinars and take dirhams and I sell for dirhams and take dinars. I take these for these, and give these for these. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: There is no harm in taking them at the current rate so long as you do not separate leaving something to be settled.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
It is derived from this that the exchange of different currencies with an increase or decrease is permissible.
However, it is necessary that it be according to the prevailing market rate of that day, and the transaction must be in cash, not on credit.

Tirmidhi — Hadith 1242
‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) says: I used to sell camels in the market of Baqi‘. I would sell them for dinars and take silver in exchange, and I would sell them for silver and take dinars in exchange. I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and saw that he was coming out of the house of Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her), so I asked him about this. He said: “There is no harm in doing so at the current price.” © Imam Tirmidhi says:
1- We know this hadith as being marfu‘ only from the narration of Simak bin Harb,
2- Simak narrated it from Sa‘id bin Jubair, and Sa‘id from Ibn ‘Umar, and Dawud bin Abi Hind narrated this hadith from Sa‘id bin Jubair, and Sa‘id from Ibn ‘Umar as mawquf,
3- Some people of knowledge act upon this hadith, that if someone takes silver in exchange for gold or gold in exchange for silver, there is no harm in it. This is also the opinion of Ahmad and Ishaq,
4- And some people of knowledge among the Companions and others considered it disliked.
Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
Commentary:
Note:
(The narrator "Simaak" became confused in his old age and would accept prompting. His reliable companions have reported this narration as mawquf (stopped) upon Ibn Umar radi Allahu anhuma.)

Ibn Majah — Hadith 2262
´It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said:` "I used to sell camels, and I used to buy gold for silver and silver for gold, Dinar for Dirham and Dirham for Dinar. I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about that, and he said: 'If you take one of them and give the other, then you and your companion should not separate until everything is clear (i.e., the exchange is completed).’” (Hasan) Another chain with similar wording.
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefit:
The meaning of the hadith is that if a transaction for something was settled in dinars, and the buyer, according to the exchange rate of that day, paid the equivalent amount in dirhams, then this is permissible as long as the payment is made in that same sitting.

Bulugh al-Maram — Hadith 670
Narrated [Ibn 'Umar (RA)]: I said, "O Allah's Messenger, I sell camels at al-Baqi'. I sell for Dinars and take Dirhams (for them), and sell for Dirhams, and take Dinars (for them), I take this for that and give that for this (i.e. Dinars and Dirhams)." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) replied, "There is no harm in taking them at the current rate so long as you do not separate leaving something still to be settled (from the exchange)." [Reported by al-Khamsah and al-Hakim graded it Sahih (authentic)].
