Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a riding animal is given as collateral, the person may ride it by bearing its expenses, and similarly, when an animal is given as collateral, its milk may be drunk. The one who rides it and the one who drinks its milk must bear its expenses."

Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When an animal is given as collateral, the fodder for that animal will be the responsibility of the person with whom it is kept as collateral. Similarly, the milk of a milking animal can be drunk by that person. Whoever drinks the milk and rides the animal, the expenses of that animal will be upon that person."

Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "A pledged (mortgaged) animal may be ridden, and its milk may be milked."

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The item kept as collateral is considered fully as collateral."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave me, Ammar, and Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas a shield jointly. Among the spoils of war taken from the polytheists, he included us as partners in them. Ammar and I could not bring anything, but Sa'd brought two captives.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Allah Almighty says: I am with two partners as long as one of them does not betray the other. When he commits betrayal, I withdraw from between them (i.e., My mercy no longer remains with them).”

Abu Hayyan Taymi narrates from his father that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Allah's grace is upon two partners as long as neither of them betrays his companion. When one of them betrays his companion, Allah withdraws His grace from both of them."

Urwah narrates that there was a dispute between two men from among the Ansar regarding a piece of land. One of them had planted a date-palm tree there, and the land belonged to the other. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) decided that the land would go to its owner, and he said to the one who had planted the tree: "Take your tree out from there." He said: "Whoever revives a barren land, it belongs to the one who revived it, but no one can plant anything on another person's land (by force)." The narrator says: The person who narrated this tradition to me informed me that he had seen that date-palm tree, which was very tall and high, and its roots had been cut with an axe. These words of the narration are not for an oppressor; what is meant is that you go into someone else's land and start cultivating it (i.e., do so without his consent).

Sayyiduna Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade muhaqala and muzabana. He (peace be upon him) said: “Farming is of three types: One is that a person owns land and cultivates it; another is a person who is given land as a gift and he cultivates it; and the third is a person who acquires land on rent in exchange for gold and silver (so he may cultivate it).”

Hanzalah bin Qais Zarqi narrates that he asked Sayyiduna Rafi’ bin Khadij about leasing land, so he replied: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. Hanzalah then asked him: “Even for gold and silver?” He replied: “There is no harm in giving it for gold and silver.”

Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land for rent, except for gold and silver (i.e., land may be leased in exchange for gold and silver).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that once the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was traveling and he saw a field that was flourishing. He inquired: "Whose field is this?" The people replied: "This field belongs to Sayyiduna Rafi' bin Khadij." The Prophet (peace be upon him) had him called; he used to lease the land for half or one third of the produce. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Calculate what you have spent on this land, then take it from the owner of the land, and hand over this person's land and his field back to him."

Narrated Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them): The Prophet (peace be upon him) gave the land of Khaybar and its date-palm gardens to the Jews on the condition that they would give (the Muslims) half of the produce.

Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: In the blessed time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), people used to buy and sell fruits. When the time for harvesting would come, the creditor would arrive to collect his debt, and the one who had to pay would say: This time the crop was afflicted by such-and-such calamity, this defect has occurred in it, and they would mention various kinds of disasters. Because of this, disputes began to arise among the people. When these disputes increased, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not make a transaction until the fruit has ripened and become ready." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this as advice, because there had arisen much disagreement among the people regarding this matter.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made an agreement with the people of Khaybar that they would give half of the produce of dates and agriculture grown there to the Muslims. The narrators have differed regarding one word of the narration.

It is narrated about Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he states that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) allowed the Jews of Khaybar to work on the lands there, on the condition that they would give half of the produce (to the Muslims), and these shares were specified. He set this condition for them: "When we wish, we will expel you from here."
