1242. Ibn 'Umar narrated: "I would sell camels at Al-Baqī', so I would sell them for Dinar but take in place of them Dirham, and, I would sell for silver and take Dinar in its place. So I went to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and found him leaving the house of Hafṣah. I asked him about that and he said: 'There is no harm in that when it (equals) the price.'" (Hasan) [Abū 'Eisā said:] We do not know of this Hadīth being Marfū' except from the narration of Simāk bin Harb from Sa'eed bin Jubair, from Ibn 'Umar. Dāwūd bin Abī Hind narrated this Hadīth form Sa'eed bin Jubair, from Ibn 'Umar in Mawqūf form. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge. There is no harm in paying for gold with silver and silver with gold. This is the view of Ahmad and Ishāq. Some of the people of knowledge, among the Companions and others, disliked that.

١٢٤٢ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْخَلَّالُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ‌سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ ، عَنْ ‌سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: «كُنْتُ أَبِيعُ الْإِبِلَ بِالْبَقِيعِ،» فَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّنَانِيرِ فَآخُذُ مَكَانَهَا الْوَرِقَ، وَأَبِيعُ بِالْوَرِقِ فَآخُذُ مَكَانَهَا الدَّنَانِيرَ، فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَوَجَدْتُهُ خَارِجًا مِنْ بَيْتِ حَفْصَةَ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ: لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ بِالْقِيمَةِ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مَرْفُوعًا إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَرَوَى دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي هِنْدٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ مَوْقُوفًا. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ؛ أَنْ لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يَقْتَضِيَ الذَّهَبَ مِنَ الْوَرِقِ وَالْوَرِقَ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ، وَقَدْ كَرِهَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَغَيْرِهِمْ ذَلِكَ.

Commentary

All A'immah, Mālik, Abū Hanīfah, Shāfi'i, Ahmad, Ath-Thawrī, Al-Awzā'i and Ḥasan, and others, agree and approve if a thing is sold in Dinar, and Dihrams are taken instead of Dinar, or vice versa, but the deal must be hand to hand. If the deal is on credit, it is unlawful.
