English

[3910] 82 – ( … ) It was narrated from Jâbir bin 'Abdullâh that the Messenger of Allah j forbade Mukhâbarah, Muhâqalah and Muzâbanah, and selling produce until it is fit to eat; it should not be sold except for Dirham and DInâr, except in the case of 'Arâyâ. 'Atâ' said: "Jâbir explained it to us and said: 'Mukijâbarah refers to unused land which a man gives to another man who spends on it then (the owner) takes some of its produce in return. He said that Muzâbanah means selling fresh dates on the tree for dried dates by measure, and Muhâqalah refers to something similar with regard to crops, where standing crops are sold for grains by measure."
