Muwatta Malik #1395
Business Transactions
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَسُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ، يَنْهَيَانِ أَنْ يَبِيعَ الرَّجُلُ، حِنْطَةً بِذَهَبٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ ثُمَّ يَشْتَرِيَ بِالذَّهَبِ تَمْرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقْبِضَ الذَّهَبَ
Yahya related to me from Malik that Abu'z-Zinad heard Sa'id ibn
al-Musayyab andSulayman ibn Yasar forbid a man to sell wheat for gold
on delayed terms and then to buy dried dates with the gold before he
had taken delivery of the gold.
