English translation

[3957] 120 - (1550) It was narrated from 'Amr that Mujâhid said to Tâwûs: "Let us go to Ibn Râfi' bin Khadîj and listen to the Hadîth from his father, from the Prophet ﷺ." He said: "He rebuked him." He said: "By Allâh, if I had known that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ forbade it, I would not have done it, but one who is more knowledgeable than them" - meaning Ibn 'Abbâs - "told me that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'For a man to lend his land to his Muslim brother is better for him than taking a specified amount for it.'"

Arabic text

120 - (1550) حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، أَنَّ مُجَاهِدًا، قَالَ لِطَاوُسٍ: انْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى ابْنِ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، فَاسْمَعْ مِنْهُ الْحَدِيثَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: فَانْتَهَرَهُ، قَالَ: إِنِّي وَاللهِ لَوْ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْهُ مَا فَعَلْتُهُ، وَلَكِنْ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنْهُمْ، يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَأَنْ يَمْنَحَ الرَّجُلُ أَخَاهُ أَرْضَهُ، خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ عَلَيْهَا خَرْجًا مَعْلُومًا»
