Prohibition of intercepting trade and the option for a musarrah animal
[AI] No arriving goods are to be met outside the market, and no town-dweller is to sell for a desert-dweller. Whoever buys a sheep whose udder has been tied up, or a camel - Shu'bah said: he only said "camel" one time - then he has the choice after he milks it. If he returns it, he returns with it a sa' of food. Al-Hakam said: or he said, "a sa' of dates."
لَا يُتَلَقَّى جَلَبٌ، وَلَا يَبِعْ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ، وَمَنْ اشْتَرَى شَاةً مُصَرَّاةً أَوْ نَاقَةً - قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: إِنَّمَا قَالَ نَاقَةً مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً - فَهُوَ مِنْهَا بِآخِرِ النَّظَرَيْنِ إِذَا هُوَ حَلَبَ، إِنْ رَدَّهَا رَدَّ مَعَهَا صَاعًا مِنْ طَعَامٍ. قَالَ الْحَكَمُ: أَوْ قَالَ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ.
The Prophet [SAW] forbade (mixtures of) Al-Balh and dried dates, and of raisins and dried dates. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 5547)
عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ نَهَى عَنِ الْبَلَحِ وَالتَّمْرِ وَالزَّبِيبِ وَالتَّمْرِ
Prohibition of meeting caravans and the option in buying a musarrah
[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not meet the caravans." Ibn Jafar said: "No incoming goods are to be met, and no town-dweller should sell for a desert-dweller, and whoever buys a musarrah has the latter of the two options." And Ibn Jafar said: one of the two options. "If he returns it, he returns with it a sa of food or a sa of dates."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «لَا تَلَقَّوْا الرُّكْبَانَ». قَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ: «لَا يُتَلَقَّى جَلَبٌ، وَلَا يَبِعْحَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ، وَمَنْ اشْتَرَى مُصَرَّاةً فَهُوَ فِيهَا بِآخِرِ النَّظَرَيْنِ». وَقَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ: بِأَحَدِ النَّظَرَيْنِ. «إِنْ رَدَّهَا رَدَّ مَعَهَا صَاعًا مِنْ طَعَامٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ».
A man from the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ told me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited cupping and perpetual fasting, but he had not made them unlawful showing mercy on his Companions. Thereupon he was asked: Messenger of Allah, you observe perpetual fast till dawn. He replied: I observe perpetual fast till dawn (for) my Lord gives me food and drink. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2374)
حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنِ الْحِجَامَةِ وَالْمُوَاصَلَةِ وَلَمْ يُحَرِّمْهَا إِبْقَاءً عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ تُوَاصِلُ إِلَى السَّحَرِ فَقَالَ إِنْ أُوَاصِلُ إِلَى السَّحَرِ فَرَبِّي يُطْعِمُنِي وَيَسْقِينِي

Breaking the fast on the testimony of two Bedouins
[AI] The people entered the morning at the completion of thirty days, then two Bedouins came and testified that they had sighted it the previous evening, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered the people to break their fast.
أَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ لِتَمَامِ ثَلَاثِينَ يَوْمًا، فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيَّانِ فَشَهِدَا أَنَّهُمَا أَهَلَّاهُ بِالْأَمْسِ عَشِيَّةً، فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ أَنْ يُفْطِرُوا.
"The Messenger of Allah said: 'D not anticipate the month until you complete the number, or you see the crescent. Then fast, and do not stop fasting until you see the crescent, or your complete thirty days."' (Sahih) Al-Hajjaj bin Artah reported it in a Mursal from. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2127)
عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا تَقَدَّمُوا الشَّهْرَ حَتَّى تُكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ أَوْ تَرَوْا الْهِلَالَ وَصُومُوا وَلَا تُفْطِرُوا حَتَّى تُكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ أَوْ تَرَوْا الْهِلَالَ
