[Machine] "He informed him that Zaid bin Thabit used to say: During the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , people used to exchange fruits. So when people gathered and their transactions were about to take place, the seller would say, 'This fruit has been affected by the enemy of fruits, it has been affected by spotted marks, it has been affected by mold and defects.' And the mold refers to something that affects it so that it does not ripen. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said when disputes increased in this matter: 'As for the one who does not do that, then do not engage in the transaction until the goodness of the fruit becomes apparent as if it is glowing, pointing to it.' Because of their many disputes. Abu Az-Zinad said: Kharijah bin Zaid informed me that Zaid bin Thabit would not sell his fruits until the Thurya (a specific star) appears and the red becomes distinguishable from the yellow."
