Allah’s Apostle forbade the selling by Munabadha, i.e. to sell one’s garment by casting it to the
buyer not allowing him to examine or see it. Similarly he forbade the selling by Mulamasa. Mu –
lamasa is to buy a garment, for example, by merely touching it, not looking at it.

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet forbade two kinds of dressing; (one of them) is to sit with one’s legs drawn up while
wrapped in one garment. (The other) is to lift that garment on one’s shoulders. And also forbade two
kinds of sale: Al-Limas and An-Nibadh.

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:

Narrated Aisha:
Rarely did the Prophet fail to visit Abu Bakr’s house everyday, either in the morning or in the
evening. When the permission for migration to Medina was granted, all of a sudden the Prophet
came to us at noon and Abu Bakr was informed, who said, “Certainly the Prophet has come for some
urgent matter.” The Prophet said to Abu Bark, when the latter entered “Let nobody stay in your
home.” Abu Bakr said, “O Allah’s Apostle! There are only my two daughters (namely ‘Aisha and
Asma’) present.” The Prophet said, “I feel (am informed) that I have been granted the permission for
migration.” Abu Bakr said, “I will accompany you, O Allah’s Apostle!” The Prophet said, “You will ac –
company me.” Abu Bakr then said “O Allah’s Apostle! I have two she-camels I have prepared spe –
cially for migration, so I offer you one of them. The Prophet said, “I have accepted it on the condition
that I will pay its price.”

gaged to someone else; and a woman should not try to cause some other woman to be divorced in
order to take her place.
