Hadith 134

Sahih Bukhari

Book 34: Sales and Trade

Chapter 82

The sale called Al-Muzabana; which is the sale of dried dates for fresh ones (that are still on the trees), and dried grapes for fresh grapes and the sale called Al-‘Araya (i.e., the selling of ripe fresh date, still over the palms, by means of estimation, for dry dates).

باب بَيْعِ الْمُزَابَنَة، وَهْيَ بَيْعُ الثَّمَرِ بِالتَّمْرِ وَبَيْعُ الزَّبِيبِ بِالْكَرْمِ وَبَيْعُ الْعَرَايَا

Anas said, "The Prophet ﷺ forbade the sales called Muzabana and Muhaqala (i.e., to sell wheat in ears for pure wheat).
قَالَ أَنَسٌ نَهَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْمُزَابَنَةِ وَالْمُحَاقَلَةِ.
Sahih al-Bukhari 2187
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ نَهَى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الْمُحَاقَلَةِ وَالْمُزَابَنَةِ‏.‏
Ibn `Abbas:

The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade Muzabana and Muhaqala.
