[3878] 59 - (1539) It was narrated from Sa’eed bin Al-Mûsâyyab that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ forbade Muzâbanah and Muhâqalah transactions. Muzâbanah is when dates on the tree are sold for dry dates, and Muhâqalah is when crops in the field are sold for dry wheat, or land is leased out for wheat. He said: "Sâlim bin 'Abdullâh narrated to me that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Do not sell produce until it becomes ripe, and do not sell fresh dates for dry dates.' Sâlim said: "Abdullâh bin Zaid bin Thâbit told me that after that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ granted a concession allowing the sale of 'Arâyâ for fresh dates or dried dates, but he did not grant a concession in any other case.'"

Arabic text

59 - (1539) وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حُجَيْنُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ الْمُزَابَنَةِ وَالْمُحَاقَلَةِ»، " وَالْمُزَابَنَةُ: أَنْ يُبَاعَ ثَمَرُ النَّخْلِ بِالتَّمْرِ، وَالْمُحَاقَلَةُ: أَنْ يُبَاعَ الزَّرْعُ بِالْقَمْحِ، وَاسْتِكْرَاءُ الْأَرْضِ بِالْقَمْحِ "
