يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنْ
هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ
قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ
الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ
عُقْبَةَ بْنِ الْعَامِرِ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:
"عُهْدَةُ الرَّقِيقِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ" . فَفَسَّرَهُ قَتَادَةُ: إِنْ وَجَدَ فِي الثَّلَاثِ عَيْبًا رَدَّهُ بِغَيْرِ بَيِّنَةٍ، وَإِنْ وَجَدَهُ بَعْدَ ثَلاثَةٍ، لَمْ يَرُدَّهُ إِلَّا بِبَيِّنَةٍ.
Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The guarantee for a slave is for three days."
Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) explained its interpretation as follows: If a defect is found in the slave on the third day, the buyer has the option to return him without any proof, but if a defect is found after four days, he cannot return him without proof.
