"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".

Dates are to be paid for by dates, wheat by wheat, barley by barley, salt by salt, like for like, payment being made on the spot. He who made an addition or demanded an addition, in fact, dealt in usury except in case where their classes differ.

"The messenger of Allah said: 'Gold for gold, of equal measure; silver for silver, of equal measure; salt for salt, dates for dates wheat for wheat, barley for barley, like for like. Whoever gives more or takes more has engaged in Riba."' (Sahih) The wording is that of Muhammad Yaqub did not mention - "Wheat for wheat".

[Machine] 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. Whoever takes more or gives more has committed usury.'"
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ أَمَا بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ غَيْرُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ؟ قَالَ لَا وَاللهِ مَا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ غَيْرُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ سَوَاءً بِسَوَاءٍ مَنْ زَادَ أَوْ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى الْآخِذُ وَالْمُعْطِي فِيهِ سَوَاءٌ

[Machine] There were people who used to sell silver from the spoils of war in exchange for currency. Ubada ibn As-Samit narrated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade exchanging gold for gold, silver for silver, dates for dates, barley for barley, and salt for salt, except in equal amounts and at the same time. Whoever increases or asks for an increase has conducted usury.
كَانَ أُنَاسٌ يَبِيعُونَ الْفِضَّةَ مِنَ الْمَغَانِمِ إِلَى الْعَطَاءِ فَقَالَ عُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الذَّهَبِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالتَّمْرِ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْبُرِّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرِ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالْمِلْحِ بِالْمِلْحِ إِلَّا سَوَاءً بِسَوَاءٍ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ وَاسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى
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)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحِ بِالْمِلْحِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَإِذَا اخْتَلَفَتْ فِيهِ الْأَصْنَافُ فَبِيعُوا كَيْفَ شِئْتُمْ إِذَا كَانَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ prohibited selling gold for gold, silver for silver, wheat for wheat, dates for dates, barley for barley, and salt for salt, except in equal amounts and at the same time. Whoever adds more or asks for more has practiced usury.
إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «نَهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ الذَّهَبِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرِّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالتَّمْرِ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالشَّعِيرِ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالْمِلْحِ بِالْمِلْحِ إِلَّا مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ سَوَاءً بِسَوَاءٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ ازْدَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْأَشْيَاءِ الْمَعْلُومَةِ بِأَجْنَاسِهَا إِلَّا مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ
[Machine] There were people who were trading silver items in a market for food and provisions. Ubada said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited trading gold for gold, silver for silver, wheat for wheat, barley for barley, dates for dates, and salt for salt unless it is done hand to hand. Whoever exceeds or is exceeded has engaged in usury."
كَانَ أُنَاسٌ يَتَبَايَعُونَ آنِيَةَ فِضَّةٍ فِي مَغْنَمٍ إِلَى الْعَطَاءِ فَقَالَ عُبَادَةُ «نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ بَيْعِ الذَّهَبِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْبُرِّ بِالْبُرِّ وَالشَّعِيرِ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرِ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْمِلْحِ بِالْمِلْحِ إِلَّا مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ اسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى»
"The messenger of Allah said: 'Gold for gold, of equal measure; silver for silver, of equal measure; salt for salt, dates for dates wheat for wheat, barley for barley, like for like. Whoever gives more or takes more has engaged in Riba."' (Sahih) The wording is that of Muhammad Yaqub did not mention - "Wheat for wheat". (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4564)
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»
[Machine] '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
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
Dates are to be paid for by dates, wheat by wheat, barley by barley, salt by salt, like for like, payment being made on the spot. He who made an addition or demanded an addition, in fact, dealt in usury except in case where their classes differ. (Using translation from Muslim 1588a)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ التَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ وَالْحِنْطَةُ بِالْحِنْطَةِ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالْمِلْحُ بِالْمِلْحِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَمَنْ زَادَ أَوِ اسْتَزَادَ فَقَدْ أَرْبَى إِلَّا مَا اخْتَلَفَتْ أَلْوَانُهُ
[Machine] 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
"التَّمْرُ بالتَّمْرِ والحِنطةُ بالحِنْطَةِ والشَّعِيرُ بالشَّعير، والذهبُ بالذهَبِ، والفِضَّةُ بالفِضَّةِ، يدًا بيد، عَينًا بعَين، مِثْلًا بمِثْلِ، فَمَنْ زاد فهو ربا".
"التَّمْرُ بالتَّمْرِ، والحنْطَةُ بالحِنْطَةِ، والشعيرُ بالشَّعيرِ، والمِلحُ بالمِلح، مِثْلًا بمِثْلِ، يَدًا بِيَدٍ، فمن زادَ أو استزادَ فقد أَربى إِلا ما اخْتَلَفَتْ ألوانهُ".
"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".
"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".
