I asked Abdullah b. Ma'qil about Muzara'a (cultivating land on share basis in the produce). He said: Thabit b. Dahhak informed me that Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade Muzara'a as Ibn Abu Shaiba forbade it with a slight change of words. He (the narrator) said: I asked Ibn Ma'qil but he did not name 'Abdullah.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنِ الْمُزَارَعَةِ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ نَهَى عَنْهَا وَقَالَ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ مَعْقِلٍ وَلَمْ يُسَمِّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ  

We visited 'Abdullah b. Ma'qil and asked him about sharing of crops, whereupon he said: Thabit alleged that Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade Muzara'a and commanded leasing it out on rent (for money) and said: There is no harm in it.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنِ الْمُزَارَعَةِ وَأَمَرَ بِالْمُؤَاجَرَةِ وَقَالَ لاَ بَأْسَ بِهَا
