From the Musnad of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri
Musnad Abi Ya'la 1243 — a servant of the Prophet ﷺ came with fine
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، أَنَّ غُلَامًا لِلنَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَتَى بِتَمْرٍ رَيَّانَ ، وَكَانَ تَمْرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - تَمْرًا بَعْلًا فِيهِ يُبْسٌ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : « أَنَّى لَكَ هَذَا التَّمْرُ ؟ » قَالَ : هَذَا صَاعٌ ابْتَعْتُهُ بِصَاعَيْنِ مِنْ تَمْرِنَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِنَّ هَذَا لَا يَصْلُحُ ، وَلَكِنْ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ ذَلِكَ فَبِعْ تَمْرَكَ ، ثُمَّ اشْتَرِ أَيَّ تَمْرٍ شِئْتَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that a servant of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came with fine, fresh dates, whereas the dates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had were dry and rather hard. the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: "Where did you get these dates from?" He said: "This is one sa' which I bought in exchange for two sa's of our (inferior) dates." Thereupon the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This (method) is not right. But when you want to do such (an exchange), first sell your dates (for money) and then buy with it whatever dates you wish."
