"I heard Abu Saeed Al-Khudri say: 'A Dirham for a Dirham and a Dinar for a Dinar.' So I said: 'I heard Ibn 'Abbas say something other than that.' He said: 'But I met Ibn 'Abbas and said: "Tell me about what you say concerning exchange is it something that you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ or something that You found in the Book of Allah?" He said: "I did not find it in the Book of Allah, and I did not hear it from the Messenger of Allah; rather Usamah bin Zaid told me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Usury is only in credit."[1]

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The dirham is to be exchanged for a dirham and the dinar for a dinar, like for like, with no surplus between them. I said to Abu Sa'eed: I heard Ibn Abbas say that there is no harm in it. Abu Sa'eed said: I met Ibn Abbas and asked him about this matter. Did you find anything about it in the Book of Allah or did you hear it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? He said: I did not find anything about it in the Book of Allah, nor did I hear it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . And you are more knowledgeable than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and me. But Usamah ibn Zaid told me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Verily, riba is in the exchange of gold for silver.
