35.4 As-Salam for (the fruits of) dat-palms

٣٥۔٤ باب السَّلَمِ فِي النَّخْلِ

bukhari:2247Abū al-Walīd > Shuʿbah > ʿAmr > Abū al-Bakhtarī > Saʾalt Ibn ʿUmar

I asked Ibn ʿUmar about Salam (the fruits of) date-palms. He replied, "The Prophet ﷺ forbade the sale of dates till their benefit becomes evident and fit for eating and also the sale of silver (for gold) on credit." I asked Ibn ʿAbbas about Salam for dates and he replied, "The Prophet ﷺ forbade the sale of dates till they were fit for eating and could be estimated."  

البخاري:٢٢٤٧حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ ؓ عَنِ السَّلَمِ فِي النَّخْلِ فَقَالَ نُهِيَ عَنْ بَيْعِ النَّخْلِ حَتَّى يَصْلُحَ وَعَنْ بَيْعِ الْوَرِقِ نَسَاءً بِنَاجِزٍ وَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ السَّلَمِ فِي النَّخْلِ فَقَالَ

نَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ بَيْعِ النَّخْلِ حَتَّى يُؤْكَلَ مِنْهُ أَوْ يَأْكُلَ مِنْهُ وَحَتَّى يُوزَنَ

I asked Ibn ʿUmar about Salam for dates. Ibn ʿUmar replied, "The Prophet ﷺ forbade the sale (the fruits) of date-palms until they were fit for eating and also forbade the sale of silver for gold on credit." I also asked Ibn ʿAbbas about it. Ibn ʿAbbas replied, "The Prophet ﷺ forbade the sale of dates till they were fit for eating, and could be weighed." I asked him, "What is to be weighed (as the dates are on the trees)?" A man sitting by Ibn ʿAbbas said, "It means till they are cut and stored."

نَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ بَيْعِ الثَّمَرِ حَتَّى يَصْلُحَ وَنَهَى عَنِ الْوَرِقِ بِالذَّهَبِ نَسَاءً بِنَاجِزٍ وَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ نَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ بَيْعِ النَّخْلِ حَتَّى يَأْكُلَ أَوْ يُؤْكَلَ وَحَتَّى يُوزَنَ قُلْتُ وَمَا يُوزَنُ قَالَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَهُ حَتَّى يُحْرَزَ
