3440. It was narrated from Al-Ḥasan, from Anas bin Mālik, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "No town-dweller should sell for a Bedouin even if he is his brother or his father." (Sahih) Abū Dāwūd said: I heard Ḥafṣ bin 'Umar saying: "Abū Hilāl narrated to us (he said): 'Muḥammad narrated to us, from Anas bin Mālik, who said: "It used to be said: 'No town-dweller should sell for a Bedouin' and this is a comprehensive phrase. He should not sell anything for him or buy anything for him."

3440 - حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ الزِّبْرِقَانِ أَبَا هَمَّامٍ، حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ وَكَانَ ثِقَةً، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «لَا يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ وَإِنْ كَانَ أَخَاهُ، أَوْ أَبَاهُ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: سَمِعْت حَفْصَ بْنَ عُمَرَ، يَقُولُ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِلَالٍ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: " كَانَ يُقَالُ: لَا يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ وَهِيَ كَلِمَةٌ جَامِعَةٌ لَا يَبِيعُ لَهُ شَيْئًا، وَلَا يَبْتَاعُ لَهُ شَيْئًا "

Commentary

The reasoning behind these Aḥādīth is similar to that which preceded regarding the prohibition of meeting the caravans.
