English translation

3326. It was narrated from Al-A'mash, from Abū Wā'il, from Qais bin Abī Gharazah who said: "At the time of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, we were called brokers. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ passed by us and called us by a name that was better than that. He said: 'O merchants, selling involves idle talk and oaths, so mix it with charity.'" (Saḥīh)

Arabic text

3326 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي غَرَزَةَ، قَالَ: كُنَّا فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نُسَمَّى السَّمَاسِرَةَ فَمَرَّ بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَمَّانَا بِاسْمٍ هُوَ أَحْسَنُ مِنْهُ، فَقَالَ: «يَا مَعْشَرَ التُّجَّارِ، إِنَّ الْبَيْعَ يَحْضُرُهُ اللَّغْوُ وَالْحَلْفُ، فَشُوبُوهُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ»،

Commentary

Giving of our wealth in charity becomes an expiation of our misdeeds, even as Allāh says in His Book: Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds (Hūd 11:114)
