Muwatta Malik #1383
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، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ الدِّينَارُ بِالدِّينَارِ وَالدِّرْهَمُ بِالدِّرْهَمِ وَالصَّاعُ بِالصَّاعِ وَلاَ يُبَاعُ كَالِئٌ بِنَاجِزٍ .
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that al-Oasim
ibn Muhammad said, ''Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'A dinar for a dinar,
and a dirham for adirham, and a sa for a sa. Something to be collected
later is not to be sold for something at hand. ' "
