Jurisprudential Points:
➊ In the explanation of this hadith, Hafiz Ibn Abd al-Barr said: There is consensus that when a narrator explains his own narration, that explanation is to be accepted, because he knows his narration better than anyone else. [التمهيد 2/313]
➋ It is prohibited to lease out a piece of land by specifying a particular portion of it in exchange for its produce or crops, but it is permissible to lease it in exchange for gold, silver (or money), as is established from the hadith of Sayyiduna Rafi‘ ibn Khadij radi Allahu anhu. See: [صحيح بخاري 2346، 2347، وصحيح مسلم 1547] and the upcoming hadith (162). Likewise, it is also permissible to lease land for a share of the total produce, such as half (nifṣ), etc. See [صحيح بخاري 2328، وصحيح مسلم 1551]. Sa‘id ibn al-Musayyib rahimahullah also considered this permissible. [موطأ امام مالك 2/625 ح1356، وسنده صحيح]
➌ It is necessary to abstain from whatever the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has prohibited, unless there is a valid evidence or clear indication for its permissibility.
➍ In Islam, those transactions are prohibited in which there is a clear risk of harm to one of the parties.
