Book 34: Sales and Trade

Chapter 90

Sold or rented date-palms which were pollinated, or land which was sown

باب مَنْ بَاعَ نَخْلاً قَدْ أُبِّرَتْ أَوْ أَرْضًا مَزْرُوعَةً أَوْ بِإِجَارَةٍ

Sahih al-Bukhari 2203
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَقَالَ لِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، يُخْبِرُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ أَيُّمَا، نَخْلٍ بِيعَتْ قَدْ أُبِّرَتْ لَمْ يُذْكَرِ الثَّمَرُ، فَالثَّمَرُ لِلَّذِي أَبَّرَهَا، وَكَذَلِكَ الْعَبْدُ وَالْحَرْثُ‏.‏ سَمَّى لَهُ نَافِعٌ هَؤُلاَءِ الثَّلاَثَ‏.‏
Nafi', the freed slave of Ibn 'Umar:

If pollinated date-palms are sold and nothing is mentioned (in the contract) about their fruits, the fruits will go to the person who has pollinated them, and so will be the case with the slave and the cultivator. Nafi' mentioned those three things.
