16. Oaths and Vows
١٦۔ كِتَابُ الْأَيْمَانِ وَالنُّذُورِ
"At the time of the Messenger of Allah we used to be called Samasir (brokers). The Messenger of Allah came to us when we were selling and called us by a name that was better than that. He said: 'O merchants (Tujjar), this selling involves lies and (false) oaths, so mix some charity with it.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3797)
كُنَّا نُسَمَّى السَّمَاسِرَةَ فَأَتَانَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ نَبِيعُ فَسَمَّانَا بِاسْمٍ هُوَ أَحْسَنُ لَنَا مِنِ اسْمِنَا فَقَالَ «يَا مَعْشَرَ التُّجَّارِ إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَيْعَ يَحْضُرُهُ الْحَلِفُ وَالْكَذِبُ فَشُوبُوا بَيْعَكُمْ بِصَدَقَةٍ»

كُنَّا نَبِيعُ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَأَتَانَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَكُنَّا نُسَمَّى السَّمَاسِرَةَ فَقَالَ «يَا مَعْشَرَ التُّجَّارِ» فَسَمَّانَا بِاسْمٍ هُوَ أَحْسَنُ مِنِ اسْمِنَا فَقَالَ «إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَيْعَ يَحْضُرُهُ الْحَلِفُ وَالْكَذِبُ فَشُوبُوهُ بِصَدَقَةٍ»
