حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ الرَّقِّيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ ابْنِ لَهِيعَةَ ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ وَرْدَانَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَبِيعُ التَّمْرَ فِي السُّوقِ ، فَأَقُولُ : كِلْتُ فِي وَسْقِي هَذَا كَذَا فَأَدْفَعُ أَوْسَاقَ التَّمْرِ بِكَيْلِهِ وَآخُذُ شِفِّي فَدَخَلَنِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ فَسَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ ، فَقَالَ : " إِذَا سَمَّيْتَ الْكَيْلَ فَكِلْهُ " .
´It was narrated that 'Uthman bin 'Affan said:` "I used to sell dates in the marketplace, and I would say: 'This was such and such an amount (when I bought it).' I Would give the purchaser a specific amount of dates according to the way it had been measured for me, and take my profit. Then I began to have some doubts about that, so I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and he said: ‘When you name the amount, measure it in front of the purchaser."'
