1366. Rāfi' bin Khadij narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever farms a people's land without their permission, then nothing he farms belongs to him, and its finances are due to him." (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Abū Al-Muhallab's name is 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Amr [Al-Jarmī; he is not Abū Qilābah.] And they also say he is Mu'āwiyah bin 'Amr, [and Abū Qilābah Al-Jarmī's name is 'Abdullāh bin Zaid.]

١٣٦٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌شَرِيكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ النَّخَعِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ ‌عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ ‌رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ زَرَعَ فِي أَرْضِ قَوْمٍ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِهِمْ»، فَلَيْسَ لَهُ مِنَ الزَّرْعِ شَيْءٌ، وَلَهُ نَفَقَتُهُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ. لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ شَرِيكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَحْمَدَ، وَإِسْحَاقَ. وَسَأَلْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ: هُوَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ وَقَالَ: لَا أَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ إِلَّا مِنْ رِوَايَةِ شَرِيكٍ. ١٣٦٦ (م) - قَالَ ‌مُحَمَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَعْقِلُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عُقْبَةُ بْنُ الْأَصَمِّ ، عَنْ ‌عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ ‌رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَهُ.

Commentary

The Anṣārī freed six slaves, whereas according to the Sharī'ah he had the right to free only two. Now everyone of the freed slaves desired to have freedom, but only two of them could get it. This was an issue that needed no witnesses for its solution, and nobody was ready to forgo his right, so it was solved by drawing lots, because there was no other choice for the solution of this issue. So in the light of this narration, such cases can be solved by drawing lots.
