The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "This night I dreamt that two men came and took me to a Holy land whence we
proceeded on till we reached a river of blood, where a man was standing, and on its bank was standing
another man with stones in his hands. The man in the middle of the river tried to come out, but the
other threw a stone in his mouth and forced him to go back to his original place. So, whenever he tried
to come out, the other man would throw a stone in his mouth and force him to go back to his former
place. I asked, 'Who is this?' I was told, 'The person in the river was a Riba-eater."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ أَبِي اشْتَرَى عَبْدًا حَجَّامًا، فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ نَهَى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ ثَمَنِ الْكَلْبِ، وَثَمَنِ الدَّمِ، وَنَهَى عَنِ الْوَاشِمَةِ وَالْمَوْشُومَةِ، وَآكِلِ الرِّبَا، وَمُوكِلِهِ، وَلَعَنَ الْمُصَوِّرَ.
My father bought a slave who practiced the profession of cupping. (My father broke the slave's
instruments of cupping). I asked my father why he had done so. He replied, "The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade the
acceptance of the price of a dog or blood, and also forbade the profession of tattooing, getting tattooed
and receiving or giving Riba, (usury), and cursed the picture-makers."

I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "The swearing (by the seller) may persuade the buyer to purchase the
goods but that will be deprived of Allah's blessing."
A man displayed some goods in the market and swore by Allah that he had been offered so much for
that, that which was not offered, and he said so, so as to cheat a Muslim. On that occasion the
following Verse was revealed: "Verily! Those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah's
covenant and their oaths (They shall have no portion in the Hereafter ..etc.)' (3.77)

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ، أَنَّ حُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَلِيًّا ـ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ ـ قَالَ كَانَتْ لِي شَارِفٌ مِنْ نَصِيبِي مِنَ الْمَغْنَمِ، وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَعْطَانِي شَارِفًا مِنَ الْخُمْسِ، فَلَمَّا أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَبْتَنِيَ بِفَاطِمَةَ ـ عَلَيْهَا السَّلاَمُ ـ بِنْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَاعَدْتُ رَجُلاً صَوَّاغًا مِنْ بَنِي قَيْنُقَاعَ أَنْ يَرْتَحِلَ مَعِي فَنَأْتِيَ بِإِذْخِرٍ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَبِيعَهُ مِنَ الصَّوَّاغِينَ، وَأَسْتَعِينَ بِهِ فِي وَلِيمَةِ عُرُسِي.
I got an old she-camel as my share from the booty, and the Prophet (ﷺ) had given me another from Al-
Khumus. And when I intended to marry Fatima (daughter of the Prophet), I arranged that a goldsmith
from the tribe of Bani Qainuqa' would accompany me in order to bring Idhkhir and then sell it to the
goldsmiths and use its price for my marriage banquet.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Allah made Mecca a sanctuary and it was neither permitted for anyone before,
nor will it be permitted for anyone after me (to fight in it). And fighting in it was made legal for me
for a few hours of a day only. None is allowed to uproot its thorny shrubs or to cut down its trees or to
chase its game or to pick up its Luqata (fallen things) except by a person who would announce it
publicly." `Abbas bin `Abdul-Muttalib requested the Prophet, "Except Al-Idhkhir, for our goldsmiths
and for the roofs of our houses." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Except Al-Idhkhir." `Ikrima said, "Do you know
what is meant by chasing its game? It is to drive it out of the shade and sit in its place." Khalid said,
"(`Abbas said: Al-Idhkhir) for our goldsmiths and our graves."
I was a blacksmith in the Pre-Islamic period, and 'Asi bin Wail owed me some money, so I went to
him to demand it. He said (to me), "I will not pay you unless you disbelieve Muhammad." I said, "I
will not disbelieve till Allah kills you and then you get resurrected." He said, "Leave me till I die and
get resurrected, then I will be given wealth and children and I will pay you your debt." On that
occasion it was revealed to the Prophet:
'Have you seen him who disbelieved in Our signs and says: Surely I will be given wealth and
children? Has he known the unseen, or has he taken a covenant from the Beneficent (Allah)? (19.77-
78)

I heard Anas bin Malik saying, "A tailor invited Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to a meal which he had prepared. "
Anas bin Malik said, "I accompanied Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to that meal. He served the Prophet (ﷺ) with bread
and soup made with gourd and dried meat. I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) taking the pieces of gourd from the
dish." Anas added, "Since that day I have continued to like gourd."

I heard Sahl bin Sa`d saying, "A woman brought a Burda (i.e. a square piece of cloth having edging). I
asked, 'Do you know what a Burda is?' They replied in the affirmative and said, "It is a cloth sheet
with woven margins." Sahl went on, "She addressed the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, 'I have woven it with my
hands for you to wear.' The Prophet (ﷺ) took it as he was in need of it, and came to us wearing it as a
waist sheet. One of us said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Give it to me to wear.' The Prophet (ﷺ) agreed to give it to
him. The Prophet (ﷺ) sat with the people for a while and then returned (home), wrapped that waist sheet
and sent it to him. The people said to that man, 'You haven't done well by asking him for it when you
know that he never turns down anybody's request.' The man replied, 'By Allah, I have not asked him
for it except to use it as my shroud when I die." Sahl added; "Later it (i.e. that sheet) was his shroud."

pulpit) for me so that I may sit on it while addressing the people.' So, she ordered him to make it from
the tamarisk of the forest. He brought it to her and she sent it to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) . Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
ordered it to be placed in the mosque: so, it was put and he sat on it.

An Ansari woman said to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Shall I make something for you to sit
on, as I have a slave who is a carpenter?" He replied, "If you wish." So, she got a pulpit made for him.
When it was Friday the Prophet (ﷺ) sat on that pulpit. The date-palm stem near which the Prophet (ﷺ) used to
deliver his sermons cried so much so that it was about to burst. The Prophet (ﷺ) came down from the
pulpit to the stem and embraced it and it started groaning like a child being persuaded to stop crying
and then it stopped crying. The Prophet (ﷺ) said,"It has cried because of (missing) what it use to hear of
the religions knowledge."

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) bought food grains from a Jew on credit and mortgaged his armor to him.
I was with the Prophet (ﷺ) in a Ghazwa (Military Expedition) and my camel was slow and exhausted. The
Prophet came up to me and said, "O Jabir." I replied, "Yes?" He said, "What is the matter with you?" I
replied, "My camel is slow and tired, so I am left behind." So, he got down and poked the camel with
his stick and then ordered me to ride. I rode the camel and it became so fast that I had to hold it from
going ahead of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) . He then asked me, have you got married?" I replied in the
affirmative. He asked, "A virgin or a matron?" I replied, "I married a matron." The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Why have you not married a virgin, so that you may play with her and she may play with you?" Jabir
replied, "I have sisters (young in age) so I liked to marry a matron who could collect them all and
comb their hair and look after them." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You will reach, so when you have arrived (at
home), I advise you to associate with your wife (that you may have an intelligent son)." Then he asked
me, "Would you like to sell your camel?" I replied in the affirmative and the Prophet (ﷺ) purchased it for
one Uqiya of gold. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) reached before me and I reached in the morning, and when I went
to the mosque, I found him at the door of the mosque. He asked me, "Have you arrived just now?" I
replied in the affirmative. He said, "Leave your camel and come into (the mosque) and pray two
rak`at." I entered and offered the prayer. He told Bilal to weigh and give me one Uqiya of gold. So
Bilal weighed for me fairly and I went away. The Prophet (ﷺ) sent for me and I thought that he would
return to me my camel which I hated more than anything else. But the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me, "Take your
camel as well as its price."
`Ukaz, Majanna and Dhul-Majaz were markets in the Pre-Islamic period. When the people embraced

it like this.

camels. The man returned to Nawwas and told him that he had sold those camels. Nawwas asked him,
"To whom have you sold them?" He replied, "To such and such Sheikh." Nawwas said, "Woe to you;

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهَا اشْتَرَتْ نُمْرُقَةً فِيهَا تَصَاوِيرُ، فَلَمَّا رَآهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَامَ عَلَى الْبَابِ، فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْهُ، فَعَرَفْتُ فِي وَجْهِهِ الْكَرَاهِيَةَ، فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَتُوبُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَإِلَى رَسُولِهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَاذَا أَذْنَبْتُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَا بَالُ هَذِهِ النُّمْرُقَةِ ". قُلْتُ اشْتَرَيْتُهَا لَكَ لِتَقْعُدَ عَلَيْهَا وَتَوَسَّدَهَا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنَّ أَصْحَابَ هَذِهِ الصُّوَرِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يُعَذَّبُونَ، فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ أَحْيُوا مَا خَلَقْتُمْ ". وَقَالَ " إِنَّ الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي فِيهِ الصُّوَرُ لاَ تَدْخُلُهُ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ ".
(mother of the faithful believers) I bought a cushion with pictures on it. When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw it,
he kept standing at the door and did not enter the house. I noticed the sign of disgust on his face, so I
said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I repent to Allah and H is Apostle . (Please let me know) what sin I have
done." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "What about this cushion?" I replied, "I bought it for you to sit and recline
on." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The painters (i.e. owners) of these pictures will be punished on the Day of
Resurrection. It will be said to them, 'Put life in what you have created (i.e. painted).' " The Prophet (ﷺ)
added, "The angels do not enter a house where there are pictures."

Chapter 42: For what perios to confirm or cancel the bargain? - كتاب البيوع
Narrated Ibn `Umar:
حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ نَافِعًا، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، رضى الله عنهما عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ
" إِنَّ الْمُتَبَايِعَيْنِ بِالْخِيَارِ فِي بَيْعِهِمَا، مَا لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقَا، أَوْ يَكُونُ الْبَيْعُ خِيَارًا ". قَالَ نَافِعٌ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ إِذَا اشْتَرَى شَيْئًا يُعْجِبُهُ فَارَقَ صَاحِبَهُ.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The buyer and the seller have the option to cancel or confirm the bargain before
they separate from each other or if the sale is optional." Nafi` said, "Ibn `Umar used to separate
quickly from the seller if he had bought a thing which he liked."
