2271 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، وَأَبُو خَالِدٍ، عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «لَا بَأْسَ بِالْحَيَوَانِ وَاحِدًا بِاثْنَيْنِ، يَدًا بِيَدٍ» ، وَكَرِهَهُ نَسِيئَةً

Commentary
Exchange of an animal for an animal is allowed. The exchange of animals by both parties should be made immediately when exchanging an animal for an animal. The equality of numbers is not necessary when exchanging an animal for an animal, for example, two cows of a lower category can be given in exchange for one cow of a higher category. Or two goats of a lower breed can be given in exchange for one goat of good breed.
