3459. It was narrated from Hakīm bin Hizām that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The two parties to a transaction have the choice, so long as they have not parted. If they are sincere and explicit, their transaction will be blessed, but if they conceal and lie, the blessing will be erased from their transaction.” (Saḥīḥ) Abū Dāwūd said: This is how it was narrated by Sa‘eed bin Abī ‘Arūbah and Ḥammād. As for Hammām he said: "until they part or give an option" three times.
3459 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ حَكِيمِ بْنِ حِزَامٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «الْبَيِّعَانِ بِالْخِيَارِ مَا لَمْ يَفْتَرِقَا، فَإِنْ صَدَقَا وَبَيَّنَا بُورِكَ لَهُمَا فِي بَيْعِهِمَا، وَإِنْ كَتَمَا وَكَذَبَا مُحِقَتِ الْبَرَكَةُ مِنْ بَيْعِهِمَا»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ، وَحَمَّادٌ، وَأَمَّا هَمَّامٌ، فَقَالَ: «حَتَّى يَتَفَرَّقَا، أَوْ يَخْتَارَا» ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ

The summary of these narrations is that both, the seller and the buyer, keep the right of forsaking the deal until they physically part from each other. Termination of conversation on the issue of the deal and talking about other topics does not dictate a completion of the deal. The deal is complete when they separate from each other physically.
