‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to Madinah and the people of Madinah used to practice salam (advance payment) in fruits, that is, they used to pay the price in advance. He said: “Whoever does salam should do so for a specified measure, a specified weight, and a specified period.” © Imam Tirmidhi says:
1- The hadith of Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) is hasan sahih.
2- In this chapter, ahadith have also been narrated from Ibn Abi Awfa and ‘Abdur Rahman bin Abza (may Allah be pleased with them).

4- There is a difference of opinion regarding paying in advance for the purchase of animals.
5- Some people of knowledge consider it permissible to pay in advance for the purchase of animals. This is also the saying of Shafi‘i, Ahmad, and Ishaq bin Rahwayh.
