[4087] 100 - (...) It was narrated that Abû Naḍrah said: "I asked Ibn 'Umar and Ibn 'Abbâs about exchange, and they did not see anything wrong with it. I was sitting with Abû Sa'eed Al-Khudrî and I asked him about exchange. He said: 'Whatever is extra is Ribâ,' and I did not accept it because of what they had said. He said: 'I am only narrating to you what I heard from the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. A man who was taking care of the Prophet's date palms brought him a Sâ' of fine dates and the dates of the Prophet ﷺ were not of this type. The Prophet ﷺ said to him: "Where did you get this?" He said: "I sold two Ṣâ' and bought this Ṣâ' with them. That is the price for this in the market." The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Woe to you, you have engaged in Ribâ. If you want to do that, sell your dates for another commodity and then buy whatever dates you want with it." Abû Sa'eed said: 'Dates for dates is closer to Ribâ than silver for silver.'" He said: "I went to Ibn 'Umar after that and he told me not to do that, and I did not go to Ibn 'Abbâs." He said: "Abû As-Ṣahbâ' told me that he asked Ibn 'Abbâs about it in Makkah and he disapproved of it."
