[1] (Chap.1) The sale by Mulâmasa has different forms: The sale becomes valid on buyer's touching the clothes without checking or looking at them. For example, one brings a folded garment in the dark and the buyer offers a price and the owner of the garment says, "I sell it to you on condition that you will only touch it, not see it, and if you see it, you have no option to cancel the sale."[2] (Chap.1) The sale by Munâbadah is like gambling: Two persons may agree to barter one thing for another without seeing or checking either of them. One may say to another, "I barter my garment for your garment," and the sale is achieved without either of them seeing the garment of the other. Or one may say, "I give you what I have and you give me what you have," and thus they buy from each other without knowing how much each has had.
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهى عَنِ الْمُلَامَسَةِ وَالْمُنَابَذَةِ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم forbade selling by Mulâmasa and Munâbadah. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 356, Vol. 3)
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، قَالَ: يُنْهى عَنْ صِيَامَيْنِ وَبَيْعَتَيْنِ؛ الْفِطْرِ وَالنَّحْرِ، وَالْمُلَامَسَةِ وَالْمُنَابَذَةِ.
Two Saum (fast) and two kinds of sale are forbidden: fasting on the day of 'Eid-al-Fitr and 'Eid-al-Adha and the kinds of sale called Mulâmasa and Manâbadah. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 213, Vol. 3)
حديث أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: نَهى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ لِبْسَتَيْنِ وَعَنْ بَيْعَتَيْنِ: نَهى عَنِ الْمُلَامَسَةِ وَالْمُنَابَذَةِ فِي الْبَيْعِ؛ وَالْمُلَامَسَةُ لَمْسُ الرَّجُلِ ثَوْبَ الآخَرِ بِيَدِهِ بِاللَّيْلِ أَوْ بِالنَّهَارِ وَلَا يُقَلِّبُهُ إِلَاّ بِذلِكَ، وَالْمُنَابَذَةُ أَنْ يَنْبِذَ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى الرَّجُلِ بِثَوْبِهِ وَيَنْبِذَ الآخَرُ ثَوْبَهُ، وَيَكُونَ ذلِكَ بَيْعَهُمَا مِنْ غَيْرِ نَظَرٍ وَلَا تَرَاضٍ وَاللِّبْسَتَيْنِ: اشْتِمَالُ الصَّمَّاءِ؛ وَالصَّمَّاءُ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ ثَوْبَهُ عَلَى أَحَدِ عَاتِقَيْهِ، فَيَبْدُوَ أَحَدُ شِقَّيْهِ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ ثَوْبٌ، وَاللِّبْسَةُ الأُخْرَى احْتِبَاؤُهُ بِثَوْبِهِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ لَيْسَ علَى فَرْجِهِ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم forbade two ways of wearing clothes and two kinds of dealings.(A) He forbade the dealings of the Mulâmasa and the Manâbadah. In the Mulâmasa transaction the buyer just touches the garment he wants to buy at night or by daytime, and that touch would oblige him to buy it. In the Manâbadah, one man throws his garment at another and the latter throws his at the former and the barter is complete and valid without examining the two objects or being satisfied with them.(B) Ishtimal-as-Samma' i.e., (1) the wearing of clothes in two ways (2) to cover one shoulder with a garment and leave the other bare; to wrap oneself with a garment while sitting in such a way that nothing of that garment would cover one's private parts. ( Sahih Al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 710, Vol. 7)
21/3. Chapter:
حديث عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهى عَنْ بَيْعِ حَبَلِ الْحَبَلَةِ، وَكَانَ بَيْعًا يَتَبَايَعُهُ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، كَانَ الرَّجُلُ يَبْتَاعُ الْجَزُورَ إِلَى أَنْ تُنْتَجَ النَّاقَةُ، ثُمَّ تُنْتَجُ الَّتِي فِي بَطْنِهَا.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم forbade the sale called Habal-il-Habala, which was a kind of sale practised in the Pre-Islâmic Period of Ignorance: One would pay the price of a she-camel which was not born yet but would be born by the immediate offspring of an extant she-camel. ( Sahih Al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 353, Vol. 3)
21/4. Chapter:
حديث عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: لَا يَبِيعُ بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَيْعِ أَخِيهِ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Do not urge someone to return what he has already bought (i.e. in optional sale) from another seller so as to sell him your own goods." ( Sahih Al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 349, Vol. 3)
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: لَا تَلَقَّوُا الرُّكْبَانَ وَلَا يَبِيعُ بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَيْعِ بَعْضٍ وَلَا تَنَاجَشُوا وَلَا يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ وَلَا تُصَرُّوا الْغَنَمَ وَمَنِ ابْتَاعَهَا فَهُوَ بِخَيْرِ النَّظَرَيْنِ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَحْتَلِبَهَا؛ إِنْ رَضِيهَا أَمْسَكَهَا، وَإِنْ سَخِطَهَا رَدَّهَا وَصَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Do not go forward to meet the caravan (to buy from it on the way before it reaches the town). And do not urge buyers to cancel their purchases to sell them (your own goods) yourselves, and do not practise An-Najsh [1]. A town dweller should not sell the goods for the desert dweller. Do not leave sheep unmilked for a long time, when they are on sale, and whoever buys such an animal has the option of returning it, after milking it, along with a Sa' (i.e. 3 kilograms approx.) of dates for keeping it." ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 360, Vol. 3 )
[1] An-Najsh : See glossary.
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، قَالَ: نَهى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ التَّلَقِّى، وَأَنْ يَبْتَاعَ الْمُهَاجِرُ لِلأَعْرَابِيِّ، وَأَنْ تَشْتَرِطَ الْمَرْأَة طَلَاقَ أُخْتِهَا، وَأَنْ يَسْتَامَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى سَوْمِ أَخِيهِ؛ وَنَهى عَنِ النَّجْشِ وَعَنِ التَّصْرِيَةِ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم forbade: (1) the meeting of the caravan (of goods) on the way, (2) and that a residing person sells goods of a bedouin, (3) and that a woman stipulates the divorce of the wife of the would-be husband, (4) and that a man tries to cause the cancellation of a bargain concluded by another. (5) He also forbade An-Najsh, (6) and that one withholds the milk in the udder of an animal so that he may deceive people on selling it. ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 887, Vol. 3 )
21/5. Chapter:
حديث عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رضي الله عنها، قَالَ: مَنِ اشْتَرَى شَاةً مُحَفَّلَةً فَرَدَّهَا فَلْيَرُدَّ مَعَهَا صَاعًا؛ وَنَهى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ تُلَقَّى الْبُيُوعُ.
Whoever buys a sheep which has not been milked for a long time, has the option of returning it along with one Sa' of dates; and the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم forbade going to meet the seller on the way (as he has no knowledge of the market price and he may sell his goods at a low price). ( Sahih Al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 359, Vol. 3)
21/6. Chapter:
حديث ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: لَا تَلَقَّوُا الرُّكْبَانَ وَلَا يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ (قَالَ الرَّاوِي) فَقُلْتُ لاِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: مَا قَوْلُهُ لَا يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ قَالَ: لَا يَكُونُ لَهُ سِمْسَارًا.
Allâh’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “Do not go to meet the caravans on the way (for buying their goods without letting them know the market price), a town dweller should not sell the goods of a desert dweller on behalf of the latter.” Ibn ‘Abbâs was asked, “What does he mean by not selling the goods of a desert dweller by a town dweller?” He said, “He should not become his broker.” ( Sahih Al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 367, Vol. 3)
حديث أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالَكٍ رضي الله عنها، قَالَ: نُهِينَا أَنْ يَبِيعَ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ.
We were forbidden that a town dweller should sell the goods of a desert dweller. ( Sahih Al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 370, Vol. 3)
