If these classes differ, then sell as you wish if payment is made hand to hand.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مِثْلاً بِمِثْلٍ سَوَاءً بِسَوَاءٍ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَإِذَا اخْتَلَفَتْ هَذِهِ الأَصْنَافُ فَبِيعُوا كَيْفَ شِئْتُمْ إِذَا كَانَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ
Gold is to be paid for by gold, silver by silver, wheat by wheat, barley by barley, dates by dates, salt by salt, like by like, payment being made hand to hand. He who made an addition to it, or asked for an addition, in fact dealt in usury. The receiver and the giver are equally guilty.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مِثْلاً بِمِثْلٍ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ اسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى الآخِذُ وَالْمُعْطِي فِيهِ سَوَاءٌ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Gold is to be paid for with gold, raw and coined, silver with silver, raw and coined (in equal weight), wheat with wheat in equal measure, barley with barley in equal measure, dates with dates in equal measure, salt by salt with equal measure; if anyone gives more or asks more, he has dealt in usury. But there is no harm in selling gold for silver and silver (for gold), in unequal weight, payment being made on the spot. Do not sell them if they are to be paid for later. There is no harm in selling wheat for barley and barley (for wheat) in unequal measure, payment being made on the spot. If the payment is to be made later, then do not sell them. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been transmitted by Sa'id b. Abi 'Arubah, Hisham al-Dastawa'i and Qatadah from Muslim b. Yasar through his chain.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ تِبْرُهَا وَعَيْنُهَا وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ تِبْرُهَا وَعَيْنُهَا وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ مُدْىٌ بِمُدْىٍ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ مُدْىٌ بِمُدْىٍ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ مُدْىٌ بِمُدْىٍ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مُدْىٌ بِمُدْىٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى وَلاَ بَأْسَ بِبَيْعِ الذَّهَبِ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْفِضَّةُ أَكْثَرُهُمَا يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَأَمَّا نَسِيئَةً فَلاَ وَلاَ بَأْسَ بِبَيْعِ الْبُرِّ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالشَّعِيرُ أَكْثَرُهُمَا يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَأَمَّا نَسِيئَةً فَلاَ
That the Prophet ﷺ said: "Gold for gold, kind for kind; silver for silver, kind for kind; dried-dates for dried-dates, kind for kind; wheat for wheat, kind for kind; salt for salt, kind for kind; and barley for barley, kind for kind. Whoever increases or seeks an increase, then he dealt with Riba. Sell gold for silver as you wish, hand to hand; and sell wheat for dried-dates as you wish, hand to hand; and sell barley for dried-dates as you wish, hand to hand." [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abu Sa'eed, Abu Hurairah, Bilal, And Anas.

"O people, you have invented kinds of transactions, I do not know what they are, but make sure it is gold for gold, of the same weight, or silver for silver, of the same weight. There is nothing wrong with selling silver for gold, hand to hand, giving more silver than gold, but no credit is allowed. When you sell wheat for wheat and barley for barley, it should be measure for measure, but there is nothing wrong with selling barley for wheat, hand to hand, giving more barley than wheat, but no credit is allowed. And when you sell dates for dates, it should be measure for measure" And he mentioned salt, "measure for measure, and whoever gives more or asks for more has engaged in Riba.

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ said, "A man asked him, 'Is there anyone between you and the Prophet ﷺ other than Abu Sa'id?' He replied, 'No, by Allah, there is no one between me and the Prophet ﷺ other than Abu Sa'id.' He said, 'Gold is exchanged for gold, silver for silver, wheat for wheat, barley for barley, dates for dates, and salt for salt, equal for equal.

[AI] "I had some dates, but I wanted to buy better quality dates than them from the market for half of their weight. So, I presented them to the Prophet ﷺ and he said, 'I have not seen better dates than these today. Where did you get these, Bilal?' I told him what I did, and he said, 'Go, return it to its owner and take your dates, then sell them for wheat or barley. Then, buy these dates with it and bring them to me.' So, I did as he instructed. Then, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Dates should be exchanged for dates, wheat for wheat, barley for barley, salt for salt, gold for gold, silver for silver, equal for equal, like for like, and weight for weight. So, any excess is riba (usury).'"

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ تِبْرُهُ وَعَيْنُهُ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ تِبْرُهُ وَعَيْنُهُ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ كَيْلًا بِكَيْلٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى وَلَا بَأْسَ بِبَيْعِ الشَّعِيرِ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ أَكْثَرُهُمَا يَدًا بِيَدٍ»
[AI] 'Ubada bin As-Samit said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade exchanging gold for gold, silver for silver, wheat for wheat, barley for barley, dates for dates, and salt for salt except in equal amounts. Whoever adds more or accepts more has engaged in usury." And the wording is from Muhammad.
قَالَ عُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ «نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ بَيْعِ الذَّهَبِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرِّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرِ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرِ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحِ بِالْمِلْحِ إِلَّا مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ سَوَاءً بِسَوَاءٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى» وَاللَّفْظُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ
"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Gold for gold, weight for weight, like for like; and silver for silver, weight for weight, like for like. Whoever gives more or takes more has engaged in Riba."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4569)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى»
[AI] "Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ: Gold is to be paid for with gold, like for like. Silver is to be paid for with silver, like for like. Grain is to be paid for with grain, like for like. Dates are to be paid for with dates, like for like. Salt is to be paid for with salt, like for like. Whoever increases or asks for more has dealt in usury, but there is no harm in buying grain with gold hand to hand. The greater amount of the two commodities should be paid as it is the correct one. This hadith is authentic and is narrated by Abu Qilabah from Abu Al-Ash'ath from 'Ubadah."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ تِبْرُهُ وَعَيْنُهُ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ تِبْرُهَا وَعَيْنُهَا وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى وَلَا بَأْسَ بِبَيْعِ الشَّعِيرِ بِالْبُرِّ يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَالشَّعِيرُ أَكْثَرُهُمَا هَذَا هُوَ الصَّحِيحُ وَالْحَدِيثُ الثَّابِتُ صَحِيحٌ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَشْعَثِ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ مَرْفُوعًا
[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Gold should be exchanged with gold based on weight, and silver should be exchanged with silver based on weight. Salt should be exchanged with salt in equal measure, barley should be exchanged with barley in equal measure, wheat should be exchanged with wheat in equal measure, and dates should be exchanged with dates in equal measure. Anyone who adds more or asks for more has engaged in a form of usury. So, sell gold for silver hand to hand, however you wish, sell dates for salt hand to handing, and sell barley for wheat hand to hand, however you wish."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ اسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى فَبِيعُوا الذَّهَبَ بِالْفِضَّةِ يَدًا بِيَدٍ كَيْفَ شِئْتُمْ وَالتَّمْرَ بِالْمِلْحِ يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَالشَّعِيرَ بِالْبُرِّ يَدًا بِيَدٍ كَيْفَ شِئْتُمْ
Gold is to be paid for by gold, silver by silver, wheat by wheat, barley by barley, dates by dates, salt by salt, like by like, payment being made hand to hand. He who made an addition to it, or asked for an addition, in fact dealt in usury. The receiver and the giver are equally guilty. (Using translation from Muslim 1584e)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلِ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى الْآخِذُ وَالْمُعْطِي فِيهِ سَوَاءٌ
Gold is to be paid for by gold, silver by silver, wheat by wheat, barley by barley, dates by dates, and salt by salt, like for like and equal for equal, payment being made hand to hand. If these classes differ, then sell as you wish if payment is made hand to hand. (Using translation from Muslim 1587c)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ فَإِذَا اخْتَلَفَتْ هَذِهِ الْأَصْنَافُ فَبِيعُوا كَيْفَ شِئْتُمْ إِذَا كَانَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ
[AI] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ, he said that gold is measured by gold in weight, and silver is measured by silver in weight, and barley is measured by barley in measure, and dates are measured by dates, and salt is measured by salt. So whoever increases or seeks to increase, then he has committed usury.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَزْنًا بِوَزْنٍ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ كَيْلًا بِكَيْلٍ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ كَيْلًا بِكَيْلٍ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ اسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى
[AI] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Gold is purified by gold, its measure, and its weight. Silver is purified by silver, its measure, and its weight. Barley is purified by barley, its measure, and its weight. Dates are purified by dates, its measure, and its weight. Salt is purified by salt, its measure, and its weight. So, whoever adds or increases in it has engaged in usury." Abu Ali Al-Rudhbari informed us, "I am Muhammad ibn Bakr." Abu Dawood narrated to us. Al-Hassan ibn Ali narrated to us. Bishr ibn Umar mentioned it and said it was narrated by Ubada ibn As-Samit.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ تِبْرُهَا وَعَيْنُهَا وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ تِبْرُهَا وَعَيْنُهَا وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ مُدْيٌ بِمُدْيٍ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ مُدْيٌ بِمُدْيٍ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ مُدْيٌ بِمُدْيٍ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مُدْيٌ بِمُدْيٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ثنا بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَذَكَرَهُ وَقَالَ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ
"التَّمْرُ بالتَّمْرِ مثْلًا بمِثْل، والحِنْطَةُ بالحِنْطَةِ مِثْلًا بمِثْل، والشعيرُ بالشعيرِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْل، والمِلحُ بالمِلحِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْل، والذَّهَبُ بالذهب مِثْلًا بِمِثْل وزنًا بوَزْن، والفِضَّةُ بالفِضَّةِ، مِثْلًا بِمِثْل وَزنًا بوَزْن، فما كان من فضل فهو ربا".
"الذَّهبُ بالذَّهَبِ، والفضةُ بالفِضَّة، والبُرُّ بالبُرِّ، والشَّعِير بالشَّعِيرِ، والتَّمر بالتَّمْرِ، والمِلح بالمِلح، مِثْلًا بمثلٍ، سَواءً بسواءٍ، يدًا بيدٍ، فإِذا اخْتَلَفَتْ هذه الأَصنافُ، فَبِيعُوا كيفَ شِئْتُم إِذَا كانَ يدًا بيدٍ".
"الذَّهبُ بالذهب، والفضَّةُ بالفضة، والبُرُّ بِالبُرِّ، والشَّعِيرُ بالشَّعِير والتَّمْرُ بالتَّمرِ، وَالملْح بِالمِلْح، مِثْلًا يِمِثلٍ، يَدًا بِيِد، فَمَن زَادَ أَوْ اسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى، والآخِذُ والمُعْطَى فِيهِ سَوَاءٌ".
"الذَّهَبُ بالذَّهَبِ تِبْرُهَا وَعَيها، والفِضَّةُ بالفِضَّة تِبْرهَا وَعَينُهَا، وَالبُرُّ بالبُرُّ مُدَّين بمُدَّين، والشَّعيرُ بالشَّعِير مُدَّين بمُدَّين، والتَّمْرُ بالتَّمْرُ مُدَّين بِمُدَّين والمِلحُ بالملِح مُدَّين بمدَّين، فَمَنْ زَادَ أوْ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أرْبى، وَلَا بَأس بِبَيعِ الذَّهَب بِالفِضَّةِ والفِضَّة بالذَّهَبِ أَكثَرَهما يَدًا بيَدٍ، وأما نَسيئَه فلا، ولا بَأسَ ببَيع البُرُّ بالشَّعِير، والشَّعِير بالبُرِّ أَكثَرَهما يَدًا بيدٍ وأما نسيئةً فَلَا".
"الذَّهَبُ بالذَّهَبِ وَزنًا بِوَزْنٍ مِثْلًا بمثْل، تبرُهُ وعَينُهُ، فمنْ زَادَ أَو اسْتَزَادَ فقد أَرْبَى، والشَّعِير الشَّعِيرِ، والتَّمْرُ بالتَّمْر، والمِلْحُ بالمِلْحَ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ فمنْ زَادَ أو اسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى".
