رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ 2632. Narrated Jābir رضي الله عنه Some men had excess land (more than they can cultivate themselves) and they said that they would give it to others to cultivate on the condition that they would get one-third or one-fourth or half of its yield. The Prophet ﷺ said "Whoever has land should cultivate it himself or give it free to his brother for cultivation, but if his brother refuses then he should or keep it uncultivated."(1)
2632 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَطَاءٌ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: كَانَتْ لِرِجَالٍ مِنَّا فُضُولُ أَرَضِينَ، فَقَالُوا: نُؤَاجِرُهَا بِالثُّلُثِ وَالرُّبُعِ وَالنِّصْفِ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ أَرْضٌ، فَلْيَزْرَعْهَا أَوْ لِيَمْنَحْهَا أَخَاهُ، فَإِنْ أَبَى، فَلْيُمْسِكْ أَرْضَهُ»
