Hadith 1589
حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ
عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ
أَبِي الْمِنْهَالِ ، قَالَ : " بَاعَ شَرِيكٌ لِي وَرِقًا بِنَسِيئَةٍ إِلَى الْمَوْسِمِ أَوْ إِلَى الْحَجِّ ، فَجَاءَ إِلَيَّ فَأَخْبَرَنِي ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذَا أَمْرٌ لَا يَصْلُحُ ، قَالَ : قَدْ بِعْتُهُ فِي السُّوقِ ، فَلَمْ يُنْكِرْ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ أَحَدٌ ، فَأَتَيْتُ
الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ فَسَأَلْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ : قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ وَنَحْنُ نَبِيعُ هَذَا الْبَيْعَ ، فَقَالَ : مَا كَانَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِهِ ، وَمَا كَانَ نَسِيئَةً فَهُوَ رِبًا " ، وَائْتِ
زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ تِجَارَةً مِنِّي ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ : مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ .
Abu Minhal reported: My partner sold silver to be paid in the (Hajj) season or (in the days of) Hajj. He (my partner) came to me and informed me, and I said to him: Such transaction is not desirable. He said: I sold it in the market (on loan) but nobody objected to this. I went to al-Bara' bin 'Azib (RA) and asked him, and he said: Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) came to Madinah and we made such transaction, whereupon he said: In case the payment is made on the spot, there is no harm in it, and in case (it is 'sold) on loan, it is usury. You better go to Zaid bin Arqam, for he is a greater trader than I; so I went to him and asked him, and he said like it.
Hadith 1589
Habib reported that he heard Abu Minhal as saying: I asked al-Bara' bin Azib (RA) about the exchange of (gold for silver or vice versa), whereupon he said: you better ask Zaid bin Arqam for he knows more than I. So I asked Zaid but he said: You better ask al-Bara' for he knows more than I. Then both of them said: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade the sale of silver for gold when payment is to be made in future.
Hadith 1604
Ibn 'Abbas (RA) reported that when Allah's Prophet (ﷺ) came to Madinah, they were paying one and two years in advance for fruits, so he said: Those who pay in advance for anything must do so for a specified weight and for a definite time.
Hadith 1604
Ibn 'Abbas (RA) reported that when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to (Madinah) and the people were paying in advance (for the fruits, etc.), he said to them: He who makes an advance payment should not make advance payment except for a specified measure and weight (and for a specified period).
