باب اشْتِرَاءِ التَّمْرِ بِالرُّطَبِ ‏‏

Hasan
Sunan an-Nasa'i 4545
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ التَّمْرِ بِالرُّطَبِ فَقَالَ لِمَنْ حَوْلَهُ ‏ ‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا نَعَمْ ‏.‏ فَنَهَى عَنْهُ ‏.‏
"‏ أَيَنْقُصُ الرُّطَبُ إِذَا يَبِسَ ‏"
it was narrated that Sa'd said:

"The Messenger of Allah was asked about (buying) fresh dates with dried dates, and he said to those who were around him: 'Will fresh dates decrease (in weight or volume) when they dry out?" they said Yes,' so he forbade that."
