أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصَمُّ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ قَالَ: قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ: عَنِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ حَمَّادٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ " أَنَّهُ كَرِهَ شِرَاءَ الْمَصَاحِفِ وَبَيْعَهَا " قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَلَيْسُوا، يَعْنِي بَعْضَ الْعِرَاقِيِّينَ، يَقُولُونَ بِهَذَا، لَا يَرَوْنَ بَأْسًا بِبَيْعِهَا وَشِرَائِهَا، وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ لَا يَرَى بِشِرَائِهَا بَأْسًا، وَنَحْنُ نَكْرَهُ بَيْعَهَا قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَهَذِهِ الْكَرَاهَةُ عَلَى وَجْهِ التَّنْزِيهِ تَعْظِيمًا لِلْمُصْحَفِ عَنْ أَنْ يُبْتَذَلَ بِالْبَيْعِ أَوْ يُجْعَلَ مُتَّجَرًا. وَرُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ أَنَّهُ رَخَّصَ فِيهِ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ ضَعِيفٌ. وَقَوْلُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: اشْتَرِ الْمُصْحَفَ وَلَا تَبِعْهُ، إِنْ صَحَّ ذَلِكَ عَنْهُ، يَدُلُّ عَلَى جَوَازِ بَيْعِهِ مَعَ الْكَرَاهِيَةِ، وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ.
Alqamah (may Allah have mercy on him) reports about Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he disliked buying and selling copies of the Qur'an. Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Some of the Iraqis do not hold this view; they see no harm in buying and selling them. Some people see no harm in buying a copy of the Qur'an, and we dislike selling it. The Shaykh said: This dislike is by way of tanzih (it is merely disliked), out of reverence for the Qur'an, lest it be cheapened by sale or made an article of trade. It is narrated in one report that Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) permitted it, but its chain is weak. And the saying of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), 'Buy the mushaf but do not sell it', if it is authentic from him, indicates that selling it is permissible but disliked; and Allah knows best.
