1215. Anas narrated: "I walked to the Prophet ﷺ with some barley bread that had some rancid oil poured over it. The Prophet ﷺ had pawned his armour with a Jew for twenty Sā' of food that he got for his family. That day (he pawned it), I heard him saying: 'Not for one evening has the household of Muḥammad had a Sā' of dates or a Sā' of grain.' And on that day he had nine wives." (Ṣaḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ.

١٢١٥ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ ‌هِشَامٍ الدَّسْتُوَائِيِّ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ . (ح) قَالَ ‌مُحَمَّدٌ: وَحَدَّثَنَا ‌مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبِي ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ قَالَ: «مَشَيْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِخُبْزِ شَعِيرٍ وَإِهَالَةٍ» سَنِخَةٍ، وَلَقَدْ رُهِنَ لَهُ دِرْعٌ عِنْدَ يَهُودِيٍّ بِعِشْرِينَ صَاعًا مِنْ طَعَامٍ أَخَذَهُ لِأَهْلِهِ، وَلَقَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ يَقُولُ: مَا أَمْسَى فِي آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَاعُ تَمْرٍ وَلَا صَاعُ حَبٍّ، وَإِنَّ عِنْدَهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَتِسْعَ نِسْوَةٍ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

It is clear from this narration that buying the needful and basic necessities on loan is approved and lawful. Such deals with non-Muslims are also permissible. Pawning something at the time of need is also lawful.
