English translation

1268. Ibn 'Abbās narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Do not go out to meet the market (caravan), do not leave the animals un-milked (to deceive the buyer), nor out-spend one another." (Hasan) [Abū 'Eisā said:] There are narrations on this topic from Ibn Mas'ūd and Abū Hurairah. The Hadīth of Ibn 'Abbās is a Hasan Sahīh Hadīth. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge, they dislike selling the Muhaffalah, and it is the Mušarrāh that has not been milked by its owner in days or more than that, so the milk accumulates in its udders to impress the purchaser. This is a type of deceit and misrepresentation.

١٢٦٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ ، عَنْ ‌سِمَاكٍ ، عَنْ ‌عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا تَسْتَقْبِلُوا السُّوقَ وَلَا تُحَفِّلُوا، وَلَا يُنَفِّقْ» بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ. وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ؛ كَرِهُوا بَيْعَ الْمُحَفَّلَةِ، وَهِيَ الْمُصَرَّاةُ، لَا يَحْلُبُهَا صَاحِبُهَا أَيَّامًا أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ لِيَجْتَمِعَ اللَّبَنُ فِي ضَرْعِهَا فَيَغْتَرَّ بِهَا الْمُشْتَرِي، وَهَذَا ضَرْبٌ مِنَ الْخَدِيعَةِ وَالْغَرَرِ.
