Hadith 63

Sahih Bukhari

Book 34: Sales and Trade

Chapter 44

To cancel or confirm the bargain

باب الْبَيِّعَانِ بِالْخِيَارِ مَا لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقَا

Ibn ‘Umar, Shuraih, Ash-Sha‘bi, Tawus, ‘Ata’, and Ibn Abi Mulaika agree upon this judgement.
وَبِهِ قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَشُرَيْحٌ وَالشَّعْبِيُّ وَطَاوُسٌ وَعَطَاءٌ وَابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ.
Sahih al-Bukhari 2110
حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَبَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ قَتَادَةُ أَخْبَرَنِي عَنْ صَالِحٍ أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ حَكِيمَ بْنَ حِزَامٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ ‏‏.‏
"‏ الْبَيِّعَانِ بِالْخِيَارِ مَا لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقَا، فَإِنْ صَدَقَا وَبَيَّنَا بُورِكَ لَهُمَا فِي بَيْعِهِمَا، وَإِنْ كَذَبَا وَكَتَمَا مُحِقَتْ بَرَكَةُ بَيْعِهِمَا ‏"
Hakim bin Hizam:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The buyer and the seller have the option of canceling or confirming the bargain unless they separate, and if they spoke the truth and made clear the defects of the goods, them they would be blessed in their bargain, and if they told lies and hid some facts, their bargain would be deprived of Allah's blessings."
