«الذهب بالذهب مثلا بمثل والفضة بالفضة مثلا بمثل والتمر بالتمر مثلا بمثل والبر بالبر مثلا بمثل والملح بالملح مثلا بمثل والشعير بالشعير مثلا بمثل فمن زاد أو ازداد فقد أربى بيعوا الذهب بالفضة كيف شئتم يدا بيد وبيعوا الشعير بالتمر كيف شئتم يدا بيد»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"Gold for gold, like for like; silver for silver, like for like; dates for dates, like for like; wheat for wheat, like for like; salt for salt, like for like; and barley for barley, like for like. Whoever gives more or takes more has engaged in usury (riba). Sell gold for silver however you wish, provided it is hand to hand, and sell barley for dates however you wish, provided it is hand to hand."
