Chapter: Regarding The Explanation Of ’Araya.
Hadith 3366
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاق ، قَالَ : " الْعَرَايَا أَنْ يَهَبَ الرَّجُلُ لِلرَّجُلِ النَّخَلَاتِ ، فَيَشُقُّ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَقُومَ عَلَيْهَا ، فَيَبِيعُهَا بِمِثْلِ خَرْصِهَا " .
Ibn Ishaq said: Araya means that a man lends another man some palm-trees, but he (the owner) feels inconvenient that the man looks after the trees (by frequent visits). He (the borrower) sells them (to the owner) by calculation.
