English translation
[3944] 112 - (...) Sâlim bin 'Abdullâh narrated that 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar used to lease out his land, until he heard that Râfi' bin Khadîj Al-Anshârî forbade leasing out land. 'Abdullâh met him and said: "O Ibn Khadîj, what are you narrating from the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ about leasing out land?" Râfi' bin Khadîj said to 'Abdullâh: "I heard my two paternal uncles, who had been present at (the battle of) Badr, narrating to the family, that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ forbade leasing out land." 'Abdullâh said: "At the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ I knew that land could be leased out.” Then ‘Abdullâh was afraid that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ had said something new that he did not know of, so he stopped leasing out land.
