AbuRafi' came to us from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade us from a work which benefited us; but obedience to Allah and His Apostle ﷺ is more beneficial to us. He forbade that one of us cultivates land except the one which he owns or the land which a man lends him (to cultivate). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3397)
جَاءَنَا رَافِعٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «نَهَانَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ أَمْرٍ كَانَ يَرْفُقُ بِنَا وَطَاعَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْفَقُ بِنَا نَهَانَا أَنْ نَزْرَعَ أَرْضًا إِلَّا أَرْضًا يَمْلِكُ أَحَدُنَا رَقَبَتَهَا أَوْ مَنِيحَةً يَمْنَحُهَا رَجُلٌ»
