I heard Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) said: Dinar (gold) for gold and dirham for dirham can be (exchanged) with equal for equal; but he who gives more or demands more in fact deals in interest. I sald to him: Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) says otherwise, whereupon he said: I met Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) and said: Do you see what you say; have you heard it from Messenger of Allah ﷺ, or found it in the Book of Allah, the Glorious and Majestic? He said: I did not hear it from Messenger of Allah ﷺ. and I did not find it in the Book of Allah (Glorious and Majestic), but Usama b. Zaid narrated it to me that Allah's Apostle ﷺ said: There can be an element of interest in credit.  

مسلم:١٥٩٦aحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ جَمِيعًا عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لاِبْنِ عَبَّادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ يَقُولُ الدِّينَارُ بِالدِّينَارِ وَالدِّرْهَمُ بِالدِّرْهَمِ مِثْلاً بِمِثْلٍ مَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ غَيْرَ هَذَا فَقَالَ

لَقَدْ لَقِيتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَقُلْتُ أَرَأَيْتَ هَذَا الَّذِي تَقُولُ أَشَىْءٌ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَوْ وَجَدْتَهُ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ ﷻ فَقَالَ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنْ حَدَّثَنِي أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ الرِّبَا فِي النَّسِيئَةِ

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with them) met Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) and said to him: What do you say in regard to the conversion (of commodities or money) did you hear it from Messenger of Allah ﷺ, or is it something which you found In Allah's Book, Majestic and Glorious? Thereupon Ibn Abbas (Allah be pleated with them) said: I don't say that. So far at Allah's Massenger ﷺ is concerned, you know him better, and to far as the Book of Allah to concerned, I do not know it (more than you do), but 'Usama b. Zaid (Allah be pleased with him) narrated to me Messenger of Allah ﷺ as having said this: Beware, there can be an element of interest in credit.
