Hadith of Rafi' ibn Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 15822 — Hadith of Rafi' ibn Khadij
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ ذَرٍّ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيج ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : جَاءَنَا مِنْ عِنْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْيَوْمَ عَنْ أَمْرٍ كَانَ يَرْفُقُ بِنَا ، وَطَاعَةُ اللَّهِ وَطَاعَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْفَقُ بِنَا ، " نَهَانَا أَنْ نَزْرَعَ أَرْضًا إِلَّا أَرْضًا يَمْلِكُ أَحَدُنَا رَقَبَتَهَا أَوْ مِنْحَةَ رَجُلٍ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) forbade us from something that could have been beneficial for us, but obedience to Allah and His Messenger is even more beneficial for us. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), forbidding sharecropping, said: Whoever has land should cultivate it himself, and if he cannot do it himself, he should allow his brother to do it.
