Muwatta Malik #1371
Business Transactions
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ أَبِي أَحْمَدَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَى عَنِ الْمُزَابَنَةِ وَالْمُحَاقَلَةِ وَالْمُزَابَنَةُ اشْتِرَاءُ الثَّمَرِ بِالتَّمْرِ فِي رُءُوسِ النَّخْلِ وَالْمُحَاقَلَةُ كِرَاءُ الأَرْضِ بِالْحِنْطَةِ .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Da'ud ibn al-Husayn from Abu
Sufyan, the mawla of Ibn Abi Ahmad, from Abu Said al-Khudri that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade
muzabana and muhaqala. Muzabana was selling fresh dates for dried
dates while they were still on the trees. Muhaqala was renting land in
exchange for wheat.
