The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: If anyone buys grain, he should not sell it until he measures it. Abu Bakr added in his version: I asked Ibn 'Abbas: Why ? He replied: Do you not see that they sell (grain) for gold, but the grain is still with the seller.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنِ ابْتَاعَ طَعَامًا فَلاَ يَبِعْهُ حَتَّى يَكْتَالَهُ زَادَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لاِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ لِمَ قَالَ أَلاَ تَرَى أَنَّهُمْ يَتَبَايَعُونَ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالطَّعَامُ مُرَجًّى
