[Machine] "If someone offers a sheep for sale, then let him return it and also return a measure of grain along with it. The Prophet ﷺ prohibited transactions involving exchange of two goods for one."  

أحمد:٤٠٩٦حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنْ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ مَنِ اشْتَرَى مُحَفَّلَةً وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ

شَاةً مُحَفَّلَةًفَلْيَرُدَّهَا وَلْيَرُدَّ مَعَهَا صَاعًا وَنَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ تَلَقِّي الْبُيُوعِ

bukhari:2149Musaddad > Muʿtamir from my father > Abū ʿUthmān > ʿAbdullāh b. Masʿūd

Whoever buys a sheep which has not been milked for a long time, has the option of returning it along with one Sa of dates; and the Prophet ﷺ forbade going to meet the seller on the way (as he has no knowledge of the market price and he may sell his goods at a low price).  

البخاري:٢١٤٩حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ قَالَ

مَنِ اشْتَرَى شَاةً مُحَفَّلَةً فَرَدَّهَا فَلْيَرُدَّ مَعَهَا صَاعًا وَنَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ تُلَقَّى الْبُيُوعُ  

bukhari:2164Musaddad > Yazīd b. Zurayʿ > al-Taymī > Abū ʿUthmān > ʿAbdullāh > Man Āshtará Muḥaffalah Falyarud Maʿahā Ṣāʿ

Whoever buys an animal which has been kept unmilked for a long time, could return it, but has to pay a Sa of dates along with it. And the Prophet ﷺ forbade meeting the owners of goods on the way away from the market.  

البخاري:٢١٦٤حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي التَّيْمِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ؓ قَالَ

مَنِ اشْتَرَى مُحَفَّلَةً فَلْيَرُدَّ مَعَهَا صَاعًا قَالَ وَنَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ تَلَقِّي الْبُيُوعِ
