1244. Sālim narrated from his father that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever purchases a date-palm after it has been pollinated then its fruits are for the one who sold it, unless the buyer made it a condition. And whoever purchases a slave who has property, then his property is for the one who sold him, unless the buyer made it a condition.” (Sahih) [He said:] There is something on this topic from Jābir. The Hadīth of Ibn ‘Umar is a Hasan Sahīh Hadīth. Similarly, it has been reported by more than one route from Az-Zuhri, from Sālim, from Ibn ‘Umar, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever purchases a date-palm after it has been pollinated, then its fruits are for the seller, unless the buyer made it a condition. And whoever purchases a slave who has property, then his property is for the seller, unless the buyer made it a condition." And it has been reported from Nāfi', from Ibn 'Umar, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever purchases a date-palm that has been pollinated, then its fruits are for the seller, unless the buyer made it a condition." It has been reported from Nāfi', from Ibn 'Umar from 'Umar, that he ﷺ said: "Whoever sold a slave who has property, his property is for the seller, unless the buyer made it a condition." This is how the two Aḥādīth were reported by 'Ubaidullāh bin 'Umar and others from Nāfi'. Some of them have also reported this Hadīth from Nāfi', from Ibn 'Umar, from the Prophet ﷺ. 'Ikrimah bin Khālid reported similar to the Hadīth of Sālim, from Ibn 'Umar, from the Prophet ﷺ. This Hadīth is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge. It is the view of Ash-Shāfi'i, Ahmad, and Ishāq. Muḥammad bin Ismā'il said: "The Hadīth of Az-Zuhri from Sālim, from his father, from the Prophet ﷺ is the most correct [of what has been reported on this topic]."

١٢٤٤ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ ‌سَالِمٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنِ ابْتَاعَ نَخْلًا بَعْدَ أَنْ تُؤَبَّرَ» فَثَمَرَتُهَا لِلَّذِي بَاعَهَا، إِلَّا أَنْ يَشْتَرِطَ الْمُبْتَاعُ، وَمَنِ ابْتَاعَ عَبْدًا وَلَهُ مَالٌ فَمَالُهُ لِلَّذِي بَاعَهُ، إِلَّا أَنْ يَشْتَرِطَ الْمُبْتَاعُ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ. وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ عُمَرَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، هَكَذَا رُوِيَ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَنِ ابْتَاعَ نَخْلًا بَعْدَ أَنْ تُؤَبَّرَ فَثَمَرَتُهَا لِلْبَائِعِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشْتَرِطَ الْمُبْتَاعُ، وَمَنْ بَاعَ عَبْدًا وَلَهُ مَالٌ فَمَالُهُ لِلَّذِي بَاعَهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشْتَرِطَ الْمُبْتَاعُ. وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: مَنِ ابْتَاعَ نَخْلًا قَدْ أُبِّرَتْ فَثَمَرَتُهَا لِلْبَائِعِ، إِلَّا أَنْ يَشْتَرِطَ الْمُبْتَاعُ. وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَنْ بَاعَ عَبْدًا وَلَهُ مَالٌ فَمَالُهُ لِلْبَائِعِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشْتَرِطَ الْمُبْتَاعُ - هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ - الْحَدِيثَيْنِ. وَقَدْ رَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَيْضًا. وَرَوَى عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ سَالِمٍ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الشَّافِعِيِّ وَأَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ. قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ: حَدِيثُ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَصَحُّ مَا جَاءَ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ.

Commentary

"Tu'abbar" means pollination. In the time of the Prophet ﷺ people used to take more produce with artificial pollination, as today trees are grafted to have more produce.
