"I said to Ibn Abbas: 'Do you think that what you are saying is something that you found in the Book of Allah, or something that you heard from the Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'I did not find it in the Book of Allah, nor did I hear it from the messenger of Allah, rather Usamah bin Zaid told me that the Messenger of Allah said: 'Riba is only in credit."'

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ يَقُولُ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ قَالَفَلَقِيتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَقُلْتُ أَرَأَيْتَ مَا تَقُولُ أَشَيْءٌ وَجَدْتَهُ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ أَوْ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ لَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ وَجَدْتُهُ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ أَوْ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَكِنْ أَخْبَرَنِي أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ الرِّبَا فِي النَّسِيئَةِ

I heard Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) said: Dinar (gold) for gold and dirham for dirham can be (exchanged) with equal for equal; but he who gives more or demands more in fact deals in interest. I sald to him: Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) says otherwise, whereupon he said: I met Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) and said: Do you see what you say; have you heard it from Messenger of Allah ﷺ, or found it in the Book of Allah, the Glorious and Majestic? He said: I did not hear it from Messenger of Allah ﷺ. and I did not find it in the Book of Allah (Glorious and Majestic), but Usama b. Zaid narrated it to me that Allah's Apostle ﷺ said: There can be an element of interest in credit.
