2265. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ forbade the Muzâbanah. The Muzâbanah means when a man sells the dates of his grove when they are still on the tree, for a measure of dry dates,[2] or, if it is grapes, he sells them when they are still on the vine, for a measure of raisins; or if it is a crop, he sells it for food, estimating the amount (of the crop in the field). He forbade all of these things." (Sahih)
2265 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، عَنِ الْمُزَابَنَةِ، وَالْمُزَابَنَةُ: أَنْ يَبِيعَ الرَّجُلُ تَمْرَ حَائِطِهِ إِنْ كَانَتْ نَخْلًا، بِتَمْرٍ كَيْلًا، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ كَرْمًا، أَنْ يَبِيعَهُ بِزَبِيبٍ كَيْلًا، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ زَرْعًا أَنْ يَبِيعَهُ بِكَيْلِ طَعَامٍ، نَهَى عَنْ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ "

The Muzâbanah transaction is when a person buys the fruits from an orchard of dates and pays a fixed amount of dry dates for it as price; or for example: he says: "I will buy all the crops about to ripen, of such and such field, for two thousand kilograms of wheat. It is unlawful because of the uncertainty of the produce of wheat in the field, if it is more than two thousand kilograms or less than that. This type of sale regarding the crops of field is called Muhâqalah; and the same type of transaction of the fruits of an orchard is called Muzâbanah.
