When the transaction was concluded, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Choose (either to go ahead or to cancel the transaction).'" The Bedouin said: 'May Allāh grant you a long life of good transaction!'" (Da'if)
2184 - حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَى الْمِصْرِيَّانِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: اشْتَرَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ حِمْلَ خَبَطٍ، فَلَمَّا وَجَبَ الْبَيْعُ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اخْتَرْ» ، فَقَالَ: الْأَعْرَابِيُّ: عَمْرَكَ اللَّهَ بَيِّعًا

As the buyer has a statutory right to cancel the deal in the same transactional meeting, likewise the seller has the same right too. c. Advising for one's benefit is part of a Muslim's sincerity, particularly when a person does not know about the matter.
