Benefits and Issues:
➊
If from one side it is cash and from the other side it is deferred payment, then it is permissible, as is mentioned in this hadith. However, if it is deferred from both sides, it is absolutely impermissible.
➋
From the hadith of the previous chapter as well, the permissibility of increase or decrease and deferred payment from one side in the sale of animals for animals becomes clear. Both of these hadiths are an argument against those people who, like items measured by weight and volume, also include countable items in the cause (‘illah) of riba al-fadl. When the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said (a dirham for two dirhams or a dinar for two dinars), the reason for this was that the value of dirham and dinar depended on weight.
