2223. It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbâs said: “When the Prophet ﷺ came to Al-Madinah, they were the worst people in weights and measures. Then Allâh, Glorious is He, revealed: “Woe to the Mutaffifun (those who give less in measure and weight)”,[1] and they were fair in weights and measures after that. (Hasan)
2223 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَقِيلِ بْنِ خُوَيْلِدٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ النَّحْوِيُّ، أَنَّ عِكْرِمَةَ، حَدَّثَهُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: " لَمَّا قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ كَانُوا مِنْ أَخْبَثِ النَّاسِ كَيْلًا، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ {وَيْلٌ لِلْمُطَفِّفِينَ} [المطففين: 1] فَأَحْسَنُوا الْكَيْلَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ "
