[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "When you engage in usury, hold onto the tails of cows, are content with farming, and give up jihad, Allah will afflict you with humiliation that will not be removed until you return to your religion." 10704 And Abu Ali informed us that Muhammad ibn Bakr narrated, who heard from Abu Dawood, who heard from Sulaiman ibn Dawood al-Mahri, who heard from Ibn Wahb, who informed me that Haywah ibn Shurayh narrated from Abu Abdur Rahman al-Khurasani, who narrated from Ata. It is narrated from two weak chains from Ata ibn Abi Rabah, from Ibn Umar, that he disapproved of such behavior and forbade a man from coming and saying, "Buy from me this and that, and I will buy it from you at this and that profit."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِذَا تَبَايَعْتُمْ بِالْعِينَةِ وَأَخَذْتُمْ أَذْنَابَ الْبَقَرِ وَرَضِيتُمْ بِالزَّرْعِ وَتَرَكْتُمُ الْجِهَادَ سَلَّطَ اللهُ عَلَيْكُمْ ذُلًّا لَا يَنْزِعُهُ حَتَّى تَرْجِعُوا إِلَى دِينِكُمْ 10704 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ أنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الْمَهْرِيُّ أنا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْخُرَاسَانِيِّ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ فَذَكَرَهُ وَرُوِيَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ وَجْهَيْنِ ضَعِيفَيْنِ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَرُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ مَوْقُوفًا أَنَّهُ كَرِهَ ذَلِكَ وَنَهَى أَنْ يَأْتِيَ الرَّجُلُ فَيَقُولُ اشْتَرِ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَأَنَا أَشْتَرِيهِ مِنْكَ بِرِبْحِ كَذَا وَكَذَا
"I asked the Prophet "O Messenger of Allah, a man may come to me and ask me to sell him something that I do not have. Can I sell it to him then go and buy it from the market?' He said: 'Do not sell what you do not have.''' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4613)
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ يَأْتِينِي الرَّجُلُ يَسْأَلُنِي الْبَيْعَ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي أَبِيعُهُ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ أَتَكَلَّفُهُ لَهُ مِنَ السُّوقِ قَالَ لَا تَبِعْ مَا لَيْسَ عِنْدَكَ
