English translation

3509. It was narrated from Muḥammad bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān, from Makhlad bin Khufāf Al-Ghifārī who said: "I had a share with some other people in a slave. I put him to work when some of us were absent, and he gained some yield for me, and my partners referred their dispute with me concerning his case to a judge, who ordered me to return the yield. I went to 'Urwah bin Az-Zubair and told him what happened, and 'Urwah went to him and narrated [1] Meaning, if a person buys a slave, land, property etc. and makes use thereof, or profits from that, but then finds a fault in it and wants to return it, the produce or profit is his to keep in return for his being responsible for it during that period. to him, from 'Aishah, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The produce is for the responsible one." (Hasan)

3509 - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ مَخْلَدِ بْنِ خُفَافٍ الْغِفَارِيِّ، قَالَ: كَانَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ أُنَاسٍ شَرِكَةٌ فِي عَبْدٍ فَاقْتَوَيْتُهُ وَبَعْضُنَا غَائِبٌ، فَأَغَلَّ عَلَيَّ غَلَّةً فَخَاصَمَنِي فِي نَصِيبِهِ إِلَى بَعْضِ الْقُضَاةِ، فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَرُدَّ الْغَلَّةَ فَأَتَيْتُ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ، فَحَدَّثْتُهُ فَأَتَاهُ عُرْوَةُ، فَحَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «الْخَرَاجُ بِالضَّمَانِ»
