Musnad Abi Ya'la 2207 — Abu al-Zubayr al-Makki (may Allah have mercy)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا أَشْعَثُ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ الْمَكِّيِّ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنِ الْحِنْطَةِ بِالتَّمْرِ وَفَضْلٍ يَدًا بِيَدٍ ، فَقَالَ : قَدْ كُنَّا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - نَشْتَرِي الصَّاعَ الْحِنْطَةَ بِسِتَّةِ آصُعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَإِنْ كَانَ نَوْعًا وَاحِدًا فَلَا خَيْرَ فِيهِ إِلَّا مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Abu al-Zubayr al-Makki (may Allah have mercy on him) asked him about selling wheat for dates hand to hand but with an unequal amount, and he replied: "In the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) we used to buy one sa' of wheat for six sa' of dates, hand to hand. However, if (the items exchanged) are of one and the same kind, there is no good (permissibility) in it except like for like."
