Bayhaqi 10720 — The ruling on one who buys an animal left unmilked

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، قَالَ: أنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، أنا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثنا هَوْذَةُ بْنُ خَلِيفَةَ، ثنا عَوْفٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَنِ اشْتَرَى لِقْحَةً مُصَرَّاةً أَوْ شَاةً مُصَرَّاةً فَحَلَبَهَا فَهُوَ بِأَحَدِ النَّظَرَيْنِ بِالْخِيَارِ إِنْ شَاءَ رَدَّهَا وَإِنَاءً مِنْ طَعَامٍ " قَالَ الْبُخَارِيُّ: وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ صَاعًا مِنْ طَعَامٍ وَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ ثَلَاثًا، قَالَ الْبُخَارِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَالتَّمْرُ أَكْثَرُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَالْمُرَادُ بِالطَّعَامِ فِي هَذَا الْخَبَرِ التَّمْرُ فَقَدْ قَالَ: لَا سَمْرَاءَ.
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever buys a she-camel or a goat whose milk has been held back has one of two options: if he wishes, he may return it, and with it a vessel of grain."
(b) Some narrate from Ibn Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him): "a sa' of grain, and he has the option for three days." Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) said: (The narrations of) dates are more numerous.
The Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) said: By "ta'am" (grain) in this hadith dates are meant: he should give dates, not wheat.
