حَدَّثَنَا
كَثِيرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
جَعْفَرٍ ، عَنْ
ثَابِتِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ
زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ نَهَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
عَنِ الْمُخَابَرَةِ ، قُلْتُ : وَمَا الْمُخَابَرَةُ ؟ قَالَ تَأْجُرُ الْأَرْضَ : بِنِصْفٍ ، أَوْ بِثُلُثٍ ، أَوْ بِرُبُعٍ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade us from "Mukhābarah." I asked about the meaning of "Mukhābarah," so he said: taking land on sharecropping in exchange for half, a third, or a quarter of the produce.
