Musnad Abi Ya'la 4984 — Sayyiduna al-Ash'ath bin Qays bought some
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ إِسْمَاعِيلُ الْهُذَلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي لَيْلَى ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، أَنَّ الْأَشْعَثَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ ، اشْتَرَى رَقِيقًا مِنْ رَقِيقِ الْإِمَارَةِ ، فَاخْتَلَفَا فِي الثَّمَنِ ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ : بِعْتُكَ بِعِشْرِينَ أَلْفًا ، وَقَالَ الْأَشْعَثُ : إِنَّمَا اشْتَرَيْتُ مِنْكَ بِعَشَرَةِ آلَافٍ ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ : إِنْ شِئْتَ حَدَّثْتُكَ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ : هَاتِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : إِذَا اخْتَلَفَ الْبَيِّعَانِ ، وَلَيْسَ بَيْنَهُمَا بَيِّنَةٌ ، فَالْقَوْلُ قَوْلُ الْبَائِعِ ، أَوْ يَتَرَادَّانِ الْبَيْعَ قَالَ : فَإِنِّي أَرُدُّ الْبَيْعَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna al-Ash'ath bin Qays (may Allah be pleased with him) bought some slaves from among the slaves of the public treasury, and then the two of them differed over the price. Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I sold them to you for twenty thousand." Sayyiduna al-Ash'ath (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I bought them from you for only ten thousand." At this Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "If you wish, shall I tell you a hadith that I myself heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said: "Yes, certainly, tell it." Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When the seller and the buyer differ, and there is no clear proof or witness between them, then the word of the seller is to be accepted, or else the two of them cancel the sale." Sayyiduna al-Ash'ath (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Then I cancel this sale."
