Arabic text

4548 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تُبَاعُ الصُّبْرَةُ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ بِالصُّبْرَةِ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ، وَلَا الصُّبْرَةُ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ بِالْكَيْلِ الْمُسَمَّى مِنَ الطَّعَامِ»

Commentary

تخريج: [صحيح] انظر الحديث السابق، وهو في الكبرى، ح: ٦١٣٩. Providing there is on either side the same variety of grain, because deficiency or excess is forbidden only when the variety of the commodity is the same. But if the species changes, for instance, there is wheat on one side and dates on the other, then there is no harm in deficiency, excess, or dubiousness.
