Hadith 19326

حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، أَخْبَرَنِي حَبِيبُ بْنُ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْمِنْهَالِ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي كِنَانَةَ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ ، وَزَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ هَذَا ، فَقَالَ : ائْتِ فُلَانًا ، فَإِنَّهُ خَيْرٌ مِنِّي وَأَعْلَمُ ، وَسَأَلْتُ الْآخَرَ ، فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَا : نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْوَرِقِ بِالذَّهَبِ دَيْنًا .
Abu Minhal (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I asked Hazrat Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) and Hazrat Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) about the exchange of currency. They said: Ask him, he knows better and is more knowledgeable than me. And he said: Ask him, he knows better and is more knowledgeable than me. In any case, both of them said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the deferred sale and purchase of silver in exchange for gold.
