أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ مَوْلَى الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ ، " أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْبَيْضَاءِ بِالسُّلْتِ ، فَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، سُئِلَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الرُّطَبِ بِالتَّمْرِ ، فَقَالَ : " أَلَيْسَ يَنْقُصُ الرُّطَبُ إِذَا جَفَّ ؟ " قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : " فَلا إِذَا " ، قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ : الْبَيْضَاءُ الرُّطَبُ مِنَ السُّلْتِ بِالْيَابِسِ مِنَ السُّلْتِ " .
It is narrated about Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him): He was asked about selling one type of barley in exchange for another type of barley, so he replied: I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) being asked about trading fresh dates for dry dates. He said: “Do not fresh dates decrease when they dry?” The people replied: “Yes.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Then it will not be allowed (i.e., this is not permissible).” (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) What is meant by this is: selling fresh barley in exchange for dry barley.
