بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي كِرَاءِ الْأَرْضِChapter on what is reported regarding renting land
Hadith 1405
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ " كِرَاءِ الْمَزَارِعِ، فَقَالَ : لَا بَأْسَ بِهَا بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْوَرِقِ " . قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ : فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : أَرَأَيْتَ الْحَدِيثَ الَّذِي يُذْكَرُ عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ ؟ فَقَالَ : أَكْثَرَ رَافِعٌ، وَلَوْ كَانَ لِي مَزْرَعَةٌ أَكْرَيْتُهَا
Ibn Shihab asked Salim bin Abdullah about renting out fields. He said: There is nothing wrong with it in exchange for gold or silver. Ibn Shihab said: Have you not heard the hadith of Sayyiduna Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him)? Salim said: Rafi' exaggerated; if I had cultivated land, I would rent it out.
