حَدِيثُ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرَزَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ
Hadith of Qays ibn Abi ‘Arzah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Hadith 18467
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي غَرَزَةَ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا نَبْتَاعُ الْأَوْسَاقَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ ، وَكُنَّا نُسَمِّي أَنْفُسَنَا السَّمَاسِرَةَ ، فَأَتَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَمَّانَا بِاسْمٍ أَحْسَنَ مِمَّا كُنَّا نُسَمِّي أَنْفُسَنَا بِهِ ، فَقَالَ : " يَا مَعْشَرَ التُّجَّارِ ، إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَيْعَ يَحْضُرُهُ اللَّغْوُ وَالْحَلِفُ ، فَشُوبُوهُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Qais bin Abi Ghurrarah (may Allah be pleased with him) that in the blessed era of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), we traders were first called brokers (dalal). Once, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us in "Baqi" and said, "O group, O traders!" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed us first with a more honorable name, "In trade, oaths and false statements also occur, therefore, mix charity and alms into it."
