English translation

3896. It was narrated that Usaid bin Zuhair said: “Râfi’ bin Khadîj came to us and I was not sure what he meant. He said: ‘The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ has forbidden to you something that used to benefit you, but obedience to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ is better for you than that which benefits you. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ has forbidden Al-Haqi for you. Al-Haqi means sharecropping the land in return for one-third or one-quarter (of the yield). So whoever has land that he does not need, let him give it to his brother (to cultivate it) or let him leave it. And he has forbidden to you Al-Muzâbanah. Al-Muzâbanah means when a man has a great number of datepalms and says: Take it in return for (a certain number of) Wasqs of dried dates this year.’” (Sahih)

3865 - أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أُسَيْدِ بْنِ ظُهَيْرٍ، قَالَ: أَتَى عَلَيْنَا رَافِعُ بْنُ خَدِيجٍ، فَقَالَ - وَلَمْ أَفْهَمْ فَقَالَ -: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَاكُمْ عَنْ أَمْرٍ كَانَ يَنْفَعُكُمْ، وَطَاعَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ مِمَّا يَنْفَعُكُمْ، " نَهَاكُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْحَقْلِ، وَالْحَقْلُ: الْمُزَارَعَةُ بِالثُّلُثِ وَالرُّبُعِ، فَمَنْ كَانَ لَهُ أَرْضٌ فَاسْتَغْنَى عَنْهَا فَلْيَمْنَحْهَا أَخَاهُ أَوْ لِيَدَعْ، وَنَهَاكُمْ عَنِ الْمُزَابَنَةِ، وَالْمُزَابَنَةُ: الرَّجُلُ يَجِيءُ إِلَى النَّخْلِ الْكَثِيرِ بِالْمَالِ الْعَظِيمِ فَيَقُولُ: خُذْهُ بِكَذَا وَكَذَا وَسْقًا مِنْ تَمْرِ ذَلِكَ الْعَامِ "
