34. Sales and Trade
٣٤۔ كتاب البيوع
Once the Prophet ﷺ sent to ʿUmar a silken two-piece garment, and when he saw ʿUmar wearing it, he said to him, "I have not sent it to you to wear. It is worn by him who has no share in the Hereafter, and I have sent it to you so that you could benefit by it (i.e. sell it).
أَرْسَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ بِحُلَّةِ حَرِيرٍ أَوْ سِيرَاءَ فَرَآهَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أُرْسِلْ بِهَا إِلَيْكَ لِتَلْبَسَهَا إِنَّمَا يَلْبَسُهَا مَنْ لاَ خَلاَقَ لَهُ إِنَّمَا بَعَثْتُ إِلَيْكَ لِتَسْتَمْتِعَ بِهَا يَعْنِي تَبِيعُهَا
(mother of the faithful believers) I bought a cushion with pictures on it. When Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw it, he kept standing at the door and did not enter the house. I noticed the sign of disgust on his face, so I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I repent to Allah and H is Apostle . (Please let me know) what sin I have done." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What about this cushion?" I replied, "I bought it for you to sit and recline on." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The painters (i.e. owners) of these pictures will be punished on the Day of Resurrection. It will be said to them, 'Put life in what you have created (i.e. painted).' " The Prophet ﷺ added, "The angels do not enter a house where there are pictures."
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ؓ أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهَا اشْتَرَتْ نُمْرُقَةً فِيهَا تَصَاوِيرُ فَلَمَّا رَآهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَامَ عَلَى الْبَابِ فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْهُ فَعَرَفْتُ فِي وَجْهِهِ الْكَرَاهِيَةَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتُوبُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَإِلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ مَاذَا أَذْنَبْتُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا بَالُ هَذِهِ النُّمْرُقَةِ قُلْتُ اشْتَرَيْتُهَا لَكَ لِتَقْعُدَ عَلَيْهَا وَتَوَسَّدَهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ أَصْحَابَ هَذِهِ الصُّوَرِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يُعَذَّبُونَ فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ أَحْيُوا مَا خَلَقْتُمْ وَقَالَ إِنَّ الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي فِيهِ الصُّوَرُ لاَ تَدْخُلُهُ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ
