Ibn ʿUmar used to rent his farms in the time of Abu Bakr, ʿUmar, ʿUthman, and in the early days of Muawiya. Then he was told the narration of Rafiʿ 'bin Khadij that the Prophet ﷺ had forbidden the renting of farms. Ibn ʿUmar went to Rafiʿ and I accompanied him. He asked Rafiʿ who replied that the Prophet had forbidden the renting of farms. Ibn ʿUmar said, "You know that we used to rent our farms in the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ for the yield of the banks of the water streams (rivers) and for certain amount of figs.  

أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ ؓ كَانَ يُكْرِي مَزَارِعَهُ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ وَصَدْرًا مِنْ إِمَارَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ ثُمَّ حُدِّثَ عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ كِرَاءِ الْمَزَارِعِ فَذَهَبَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ إِلَى رَافِعٍ فَذَهَبْتُ مَعَهُ فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ نَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ كِرَاءِ الْمَزَارِعِ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ أَنَّا كُنَّا نُكْرِي مَزَارِعَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِمَا عَلَى الأَرْبِعَاءِ وَبِشَىْءٍ مِنَ التِّبْنِ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to forbid the renting of land. So Ibn Umar (Allah be pleased with them) abandoned it, and subsequently whenever he was asked about it, he said: Rafi b. Khadij (Allah be pleased with him) alleged that Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade it.  

أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ كَانَ يُكْرِي مَزَارِعَهُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَفِي إِمَارَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ وَصَدْرًا مِنْ خِلاَفَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ حَتَّى بَلَغَهُ فِي آخِرِ خِلاَفَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ أَنَّ رَافِعَ بْنَ خَدِيجٍ يُحَدِّثُ فِيهَا بِنَهْىٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَنْهَى عَنْ كِرَاءِ الْمَزَارِعِ فَتَرَكَهَا ابْنُ عُمَرَ بَعْدُ وَكَانَ إِذَا سُئِلَ عَنْهَا بَعْدُ قَالَ زَعَمَ رَافِعُ بْنُ خَدِيجٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْهَا  

[Machine] Ibn Umar cultivated his farms during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and during the leadership of Muawiyah. A man came to him and said, "Rafi' claims that the Prophet ﷺ prohibited renting out farmland." Nafi' narrated, "So Ibn Umar went to Rafi' and I went with him." Ibn Umar asked Rafi', "What have I heard about you mentioning something from the Prophet ﷺ regarding renting out farms?" Rafi' replied, "Yes, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited renting out farms." Ibn Umar continued, "Whenever he was asked about it afterward, he would say, 'Rafi' claims that the Prophet ﷺ prohibited it,' and Nafi' clarified, 'So when Rafi' mentioned what he did, I knew that we used to rent our farms during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, for four sheep and a little straw that I do not recall exactly.'"  

ابْنُ عُمَرَ يُكْرِي مَزَارِعَهُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ وَصَدْرًا مِنْ إِمَارَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ ؓ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَافِعًا يَزْعُمُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ كِرَاءِ الْأَرْضِ قَالَ نَافِعٌ فَانْطَلَقَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ إِلَى رَافِعٍ وَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ مَا الَّذِي بَلَغَنِي عَنْكَ تَذْكُرُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي كِرَاءِ الْمَزَارِعِ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ كِرَاءِ الْمَزَارِعِ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ إِذَا سُئِلَ عَنْهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ زَعَمَ رَافِعٌ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْهُ قَالَ نَافِعٌ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَمَّا ذَكَرَ رَافِعٌ مَا ذَكَرَ قَدْ كُنْتُ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّا نُكْرِي مَزَارِعَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَا عَلَى الْأَرْبِعَاءِ وَشَيْءٍ مِنَ التِّبْنِ لَا أَحْفَظُهُ
