English translation

3457. It was narrated from Ḥammad, from Jamil bin Murrah, from Ibn Al-Waḍī, who said: "We went out on a campaign and stopped to camp. A companion of ours sold a horse for a slave, then they (the two parties to the transaction) remained for the rest of that day and night, and when the time to depart came the following morning, he went to saddle his horse and he regretted it. He went to the man and asked him to annul (the transaction), but the man refused to give the horse to him. He said: 'Abū Barzah, the Companion of the Prophet ﷺ, will (arbitrate) between you and I.' They went to Abū Barzah in some corner of the camp, and told him this story. He said: 'Will you agree to let me judge between you based on the judgment of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'The two parties to a transaction have the option so long as they have not parted.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) Hishām bin Hassān said: "Jamil narrated that he said: 'I do not think that you two have parted.'"

3457 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْوَضِيءِ، قَالَ: غَزَوْنَا غَزْوَةً لَنَا، فَنَزَلْنَا مَنْزِلًا فَبَاعَ صَاحِبٌ لَنَا فَرَسًا بِغُلَامٍ، ثُمَّ أَقَامَا بَقِيَّةَ يَوْمِهِمَا وَلَيْلَتِهِمَا فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَا مِنَ الْغَدِ حَضَرَ الرَّحِيلُ، فَقَامَ إِلَى فَرَسِهِ يُسْرِجُهُ فَنَدِمَ، فَأَتَى الرَّجُلَ وَأَخَذَهُ بِالْبَيْعِ فَأَبَى الرَّجُلُ أَنْ يَدْفَعَهُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ أَبُو بَرْزَةَ صَاحِبُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَتَيَا أَبَا بَرْزَةَ فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْعَسْكَرِ فَقَالَا لَهُ: هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةَ، فَقَالَ: أَتَرْضَيَانِ أَنْ أَقْضِيَ بَيْنَكُمَا بِقَضَاءِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْبَيِّعَانِ بِالْخِيَارِ مَا لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقَا»، قَالَ هِشَامُ بْنُ حَسَّانَ: حَدَّثَ جَمِيلٌ أَنَّهُ، قَالَ: مَا أَرَاكُمَا افْتَرَقْتُمَا
