English translation

[4071] 86 - (1589) It was narrated that Abû Al-Minhâl said: Sharîk sold some silver for me, to be paid for during the Hajj season. He came to me and told me, and I said: “This is not good.” He said: “I sold it in the market and no one objected.” I went to Al-Barâ’ bin ‘Azîb and asked him, and he said: "When the Prophet ﷺ came to Al-Madinah, we used to sell in this fashion, and he said: 'Whatever is hand to hand, there is nothing wrong with it. But whatever is to be paid for later is Ribâ.'" Go to Zaid bin Arqam for he is more involved in trade than I am. So I went to him and asked him, and he said something similar.

86 - (1589) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي الْمِنْهَالِ، قَالَ: بَاعَ شَرِيكٌ لِي وَرِقًا بِنَسِيئَةٍ إِلَى الْمَوْسِمِ، أَوْ إِلَى الْحَجِّ، فَجَاءَ إِلَيَّ فَأَخْبَرَنِي، فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا أَمْرٌ لَا يَصْلُحُ، قَالَ: قَدْ بِعْتُهُ فِي السُّوقِ، فَلَمْ يُنْكِرْ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ أَحَدٌ، فَأَتَيْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ وَنَحْنُ نَبِيعُ هَذَا الْبَيْعَ، فَقَالَ: «مَا كَانَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِهِ، وَمَا كَانَ نَسِيئَةً فَهُوَ رِبًا»، وَائْتِ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ، فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ تِجَارَةً مِنِّي، فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ
