Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 1422 — The sale of one under compulsion

أَبُو يَعْلَى : حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ ، ثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنِ الْكَوْثَرِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ ، قَالَ : بَلَغَنِي عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : أَلَا إِنَّ زَمَانَكُمْ هَذَا زَمَانٌ عَضُوضٌ ، يَعَضُّ الْمُؤْمِنُ عَلَى مَا فِي يَدِهِ حَذَارَ الْإِنْفَاقِ . قَالَ اللهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - : وَمَا أَنْفَقْتُمْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ فَهُوَ يُخْلِفُهُ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ الرَّازِقِينَ . قَالَ - وَشَهِدَ شِرَارَ النَّاسِ يُبَايِعُونَ كُلَّ مُضْطَرٍّ : أَلَا إِنَّ بَيْعَ الْمُضْطَرِّينَ حَرَامٌ ، إِنَّ بَيْعَ الْمُضْطَرِّينَ حَرَامٌ ، الْمُسْلِمُ أَخُو الْمُسْلِمِ ، لَا يَظْلِمُهُ ، وَلَا يَخْذُلُهُ ، إِنْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ مَعْرُوفٌ فَعُدْ بِهِ عَلَى أَخِيكَ ، وَإِلَّا فَلَا تَزِدْهُ هَلَاكًا عَلَى هَلَاكِهِ .
الْكَوْثَرُ مَتْرُوكٌ ، وَمَكْحُولٌ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - مُنْقَطِعٌ .
It is narrated from Makhul that he said: It reached me from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Beware! This present time of yours is a very harsh and painful time, in which the believer will cling with his teeth to the wealth in his hands for fear of spending (in the way of Allah) (that is, he will be extremely miserly)," whereas Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, says: "And whatever you spend of anything, He will replace it, and He is the best of providers." The narrator said that he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw the worst of people trading with every person in dire need (that is, exploiting his need to buy cheaply), so he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Beware! Such trading with people in dire need is unlawful; indeed, such bargaining with the needy and helpless is unlawful. A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim: he does not wrong him, nor does he abandon him (in hardship). If you have some good or surplus wealth, spend it on your brother's need; otherwise do not push him towards ruin by adding to his present distress." The narrator called al-Kawthar is matruk (abandoned), and this report of Makhul from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) is broken (munqati').
