Chapter on ‘Inah Sale and Similar Transactions and Selling Food Before Taking Possession
Muwatta Malik (Yahya) 1348 — on ‘Inah Sale and Similar Transactions
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَمِيلَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمُؤَذِّنَ، يَقُولُ لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ : إِنِّي رَجُلٌ أَبْتَاعُ مِنَ الْأَرْزَاقِ الَّتِي تُعْطَى النَّاسُ بِالْجَارِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ، ثُمَّ أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَبِيعَ الطَّعَامَ الْمَضْمُونَ عَلَيَّ إِلَى أَجَلٍ . فَقَالَ لَهُ سَعِيدٌ : " أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تُوَفِّيَهُمْ مِنْ تِلْكَ الْأَرْزَاقِ الَّتِي ابْتَعْتَ ؟ " فَقَالَ : نَعَمْ . فَنَهَاهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ .
Hazrat Jameel bin Abdur Rahman said to Saeed bin Musayyib: I buy those grains which are allotted to people by the government, then I wish to sell the grain to people on a fixed term. Saeed said: You wish to pay those people from the same grain which you have bought. Jameel said: Yes. Saeed bin Musayyib forbade him from this.
قَالَ مَالِك : الْأَمْرُ الْمُجْتَمَعُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَنَا الَّذِي لَا اخْتِلَافَ فِيهِ أَنَّهُ مَنِ اشْتَرَى طَعَامًا بُرًّا أَوْ شَعِيرًا أَوْ سُلْتًا أَوْ ذُرَةً أَوْ دُخْنًا أَوْ شَيْئًا مِنَ الْحُبُوبِ الْقِطْنِيَّةِ، أَوْ شَيْئًا مِمَّا يُشْبِهُ الْقِطْنِيَّةَ مِمَّا تَجِبُ فِيهِ الزَّكَاةُ، أَوْ شَيْئًا مِنَ الْأُدُمِ كُلِّهَا الزَّيْتِ وَالسَّمْنِ وَالْعَسَلِ وَالْخَلِّ وَالْجُبْنِ وَالشِّبرِقِ وَاللَّبَنِ وَمَا أَشْبَهَ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْأُدْمِ، فَإِنَّ الْمُبْتَاعَ لَا يَبِيعُ شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَقْبِضَهُ وَيَسْتَوْفِيَهُ
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: In our view, this ruling is agreed upon, that whoever buys grain, such as wheat, barley, millet, bajra, and lentils, etc., in which zakat is obligatory, or things eaten with bread, such as olive oil, or ghee, or honey, or vinegar, or cheese, or milk, or sesame oil, and things similar to these, then none of these things should be sold until he has taken possession of them.
