بَابُ بَيْعِ الْحَيَوَانِ بِاللَّحْمِ
Selling Animals for Meat
Hadith 1366
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " نَهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ الْحَيَوَانِ بِاللَّحْمِ "
It is narrated from Hazrat Saeed bin Musayyib that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade selling an animal in exchange for its meat.
Hadith 1367
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، يَقُولُ : " مِنْ مَيْسِرِ أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، بَيْعُ الْحَيَوَانِ بِاللَّحْمِ بِالشَّاةِ وَالشَّاتَيْنِ "
Said ibn al-Musayyib used to say: This too is gambling of the Jahiliyyah—to sell meat in exchange for one goat or two goats.
Hadith 1368
عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ : نُهِيَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْحَيَوَانِ بِاللَّحْمِ. قَالَ أَبُو الزِّنَادِ : فَقُلْتُ لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ : أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا اشْتَرَى شَارِفًا بِعَشَرَةِ شِيَاهٍ؟ فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ : إِنْ كَانَ اشْتَرَاهَا لِيَنْحَرَهَا، فَلَا خَيْرَ فِي ذَلِكَ. قَالَ أَبُو الزِّنَادِ : وَكُلُّ مَنْ أَدْرَكْتُ مِنَ النَّاسِ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْحَيَوَانِ بِاللَّحْمِ، قَالَ أَبُو الزِّنَادِ : وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يُكْتَبُ فِي عُهُودِ الْعُمَّالِ فِي زَمَانِ أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ وَهِشَامِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ.
Said ibn al-Musayyib used to say: It is prohibited to sell an animal in exchange for meat. Abu al-Zinad said: I asked Said ibn al-Musayyib, "What if a person buys a camel in exchange for ten goats?" Said replied: "If it is bought for slaughtering, then it is not preferable." Abu al-Zinad said: I found all the scholars prohibiting the sale of an animal in exchange for meat, and during the time of Aban ibn Uthman and Hisham ibn Isma'il, this prohibition used to be written in the official decrees of the governors.
