Hadith 1031
´Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) says that exchanging dinar for dinar and dirham for dirham (in equal amounts) is permissible. It was said to him that Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) does not hold this view (i.e., he permits selling with an increase or decrease). So Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) said that I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): Did you hear this from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) or did you see it in the Book of Allah? Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) replied: I do not say anything from either of these two, and you know the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) better than I do. However, Sayyiduna Usama (may Allah be pleased with him) informed me that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Riba (usury) is only in deferred payment."
