حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ نَهَى عَنِ الْمُخَابَرَةِ وَالْمُزَابَنَةِ وَالْمُحَاقَلَةِ وَأَنْ يُبَاعَ الثَّمَرُ حَتَّى يَبْدُوَ صَلاَحُهُ وَأَنْ لاَ يُبَاعَ إِلاَّ بِالدَّنَانِيرِ وَالدَّرَاهِمِ وَرَخَّصَ فِي الْعَرَايَا .
'Ata Narrated from:
I heard Jabir bin 'Abdullah (narrate) from the Prophet that he forbade Mukhabarah, Muzabanah and Muhaqalah, an (he forbade) selling fruits until their condition is known, an that they should only sold for Dinars and Dirhams, but he granted a concession regarding the sale of Araya:
[1] ‘Arâyâ’ refers to trees from the coming harvest which are given as a gift, but the giver will be troubled by the recipient’s coming to his garden to collect the dates, so he offers to sell him dried, measured dates in return for the coming harvest.Reference : Sunan an-Nasa'i 4523In-book reference : Book 44, Hadith 75English translation : Vol. 5, Book 44, Hadith 4527
