[AI] I heard Iyas ibn Abd Al-Muzanni, one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ, saying, "Do not sell water, for I heard the Prophet ﷺ forbidding the selling of water." Amru ibn Dinar said, "We do not know which water he means?" He replied, "He means the flowing water or the extracted water."

سَمِعْتُ إِيَاسَ بْنَ عَبْدٍ الْمُزَنِيَّ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَا تَبِيعُوا الْمَاءَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «يَنْهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ الْمَاءِ» وَقَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ لَا نَدْرِي أَيَّ مَاءٍ؟ قَالَ يَقُولُ لَا أَدْرِي مَاءً جَارِيًا أَوِ الْمَاءَ الْمُسْتَقَى؟
