muminin that Judama bint Wahb al-Asadiyya informed her that she heard
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say,

Malik explained, "Ghila is that a man has intercourse with
his wife while she is suckling."

حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ الثِّقَةِ، عِنْدَهُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ الْعُرْبَانِ .

قَالَ مَالِكٌ: وَذلِكَ فِيمَا نُرَى - وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ - أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ الرَّجُلُ الْعَبْدَ، أَوِ الْوَلِيدَةَ. أَوْ يَتَكَارَى الدَّابَّةَ. ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لِلَّذِي اشْتَرَى مِنْهُ، أَوْ تَكَارَى مِنْهُ: أُعْطِيكَ دِينَاراً، أَوْ دِرْهَماً، أَوْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذلِكَ، أَوْ أَقَلَّ. عَلَى أَنِّي إِنْ أَخَذْتُ السِّلْعَةَ، أَوْ رَكِبْتُ مَا تَكَارَيْتُ مِنْكَ، فَالَّذِي أَعْطَيْتُكَ هُوَ مِنْ ثَمَنِ السِّلْعَةِ. أَوْ مِنْ كِرَاءِ الدَّابَّةِ، وَإِنْ تَرَكْتُ ابْتِيَاعَ السِّلْعَةِ، أَوْ كِرَاءَ الدَّابَّةِ، فَمَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ لَكَ بَاطِلٌ بِغَيْرِ شَيْءٍ.

قَالَ مَالِكٌ: وَالْأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا، أَنَّهُ لاَ بَأْسَ بِأَنْ يَبْتَاعَ الْعَبْدَ التَّاجِرَ الْفَصِيحَ، بِالْأَعْبُدِ مِنَ الْحَبَشَةِ، أَوْ مِنْ جِنْسٍ مِنَ الْأَجْنَاسِ، لَيْسُوا مِثْلَهُ فِي الْفَصَاحَةِ، وَلاَ فِي التِّجَارَةِ، وَالنَّفَاذِ، وَالْمَعْرِفَةِ. لاَ بَأْسَ بِهذَا، أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ مِنْهُ الْعَبْدَ بِالْعَبْدَيْنِ، أَوْ بِالْأَعْبُدِ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مَعْلُومٍ. إِذَا اخْتَلَفَ، فَبَانَ اخْتِلاَفُهُ .فَإِنْ أَشْبَهَ بَعْضُ ذلِكَ بَعْضاً، حَتَّى يَتَقَارَبَ، فَلاَ تَأْخُذَنْ مِنْهُ اثْنَيْنِ بِوَاحِدٍ، إِلَى أَجَلٍ. وَإِنِ اخْتَلَفَتْ أَجْنَاسُهُمْ.

قَالَ مَالِكٌ: وَلاَ بَأْسَ بِأَنْ تَبِيعَ مَا اشْتَرَيْتَ مِنْ ذلِكَ، قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْتَوْفِيَهُ. إِذَا انْتَقَدْتَ ثَمَنَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ صَاحِبِهِ الَّذِي اشْتَرَيْتَهُ مِنْهُ.

قَالَ مَالِكٌ: لاَ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُسْتَثْنَى جَنِينٌ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ، إِذَا بِيعَتْ. لِأَنَّ ذلِكَ غَرَرٌ. لاَ يُدْرَى أَذَكَرٌ هُوَ أَمْ (1) أُنْثَى أو حَسَنٌ (2) أَوْ قَبِيحٌ، أَوْ نَاقِصٌ، أَوْ تَامٌّ، أَوْ حَيٌّ أَوْ مَيِّتٌ؟. وَذلِكَ يَضَعُ مِنْ ثَمَنِهَا.

قَالَ مَالِكٌ، فِي الرَّجُلِ يَبْتَاعُ الْعَبْدَ، أَوِ الْوَلِيدَةَ، بِمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ. ثُمَّ يَنْدَمُ الْبَائِعُ. فَيَسْأَلُ الْمُبْتَاعَ أَنْ يُقِيلَهُ بِعَشَرَةِ دَنَانِيرَ، يَدْفَعُهَا إِلَيْهِ نَقْداً. أَوْ إِلَى أَجَلٍ. وَيَمْحُو عَنْهُ الْمِائَةَ دِينَارٍ الَّتِي لَهُ.
قَالَ مَالِكٌ: لاَ بَأْسَ بِذلِكَ. وَإِنْ نَدِمَ الْمُبْتَاعُ، فَسَأَلَ الْبَائِعَ أَنْ يُقِيلَهُ فِي الْجَارِيَةِ، أَوِ الْعَبْدِ، وَيَزِيدَهُ عَشَرَةَ دَنَانِيرَ نَقْداً، أَوْ إِلَى أَجَلٍ أَبْعَدَ مِنَ الْأَجَلِ الَّذِي اشْتَرَى إِلَيْهِ الْعَبْدَ، أَوِ الْوَلِيدَةَ. فَإِنَّ ذلِكَ لاَ يَنْبَغِي.
وَإِنَّمَا كَرِهَ ذلِكَ؛ لِأَنَّ الْبَائِعَ كَأَنَّهُ بَاعَ مِنْهُ مِائَةَ دِينَارٍ لَهُ، إِلَى سَنَةٍ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَحِلَّ، بِجَارِيَةٍ، وَبِعَشَرَةِ دَنَانِيرَ نَقْداً. أَوْ إِلَى أَجَلٍ أَبْعَدَ مِنَ السَّنَةِ. فَدَخَلَ فِي ذلِكَ بَيْعُ الذَّهَبِ بِالذَّهَبِ إِلَى أَجَلٍ.

قَالَ مَالِكٌ، فِي الرَّجُلِ يَبِيعُ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ الْجَارِيَةَ بِمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ، ثُمَّ يَشْتَرِيهَا بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذلِكَ الثَّمَنِ الَّذِي بَاعَهَا بِهِ إِلَى أَبْعَدَ مِنْ ذلِكَ الْأَجَلِ، الَّذِي بَاعَهَا إِلَيْهِ: إِنَّ ذلِكَ لاَ يَصْلُحُ. وَتَفْسِيرُ مَا كَرِهَ مِنْ ذلِكَ، أَنْ يَبِيعَ الرَّجُلُ الْجَارِيَةَ إِلَى أَجَلٍ. ثُمَّ يَبْتَاعُهَا إِلَى أَجَلٍ أَبْعَدَ مِنْهُ. يَبِيعُهَا بِثَلاَثِينَ دِينَاراً إِلَى شَهْرٍ، ثُمَّ يَبْتَاعُهَا بِسِتِّينَ دِينَاراً، إِلَى سَنَةٍ، أَوْ إِلَى نِصْفِ  سَنَةٍ. فَصَارَ، إِنْ رَجَعَتْ إِلَيْهِ سِلْعَتُهُ بِعَيْنِهَا، وَأَعْطَاهُ صَاحِبُهُ ثَلاَثِينَ دِينَاراً، إِلَى شَهْرٍ؛ بِسِتِّينَ دِينَاراً، إِلَى سَنَةٍ، أَوْ إِلَى نِصْفِ سَنَةٍ. فَهذَا لاَ يَنْبَغِي.

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from a reliable source from Amr
ibn Shuayb from his father from his father's father that the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade
transactions in which nonrefundable deposits were paid.

Malik
said, "That is, in our opinion, but Allah knows best, that for
instance, a man buys a slave or slave-girl or rents an animal and then
says to the person from whom he bought the slave or leased the animal,
'I will give you a dinar or a dirham or whatever on the condition that
if I actually take the goods or ride what I have rented from you, then
what I have given you already goes towards payment of the goods or
hire of the animal. If I do not purchase the goods or hire the animal,
then what I have given you is yours without liability on your part.' "

Malik said, "According to the way of doing things with us
there is nothing wrong in bartering an arabic speaking merchant slave
for abyssinian slaves or any other type that are not his equal in
eloquence, trading, shrewdness, and know-how. There is nothing wrong
in bartering one slave like this for two or more other slaves with a
stated delay in the terms if he is clearly different. If there is no
appreciable difference between the slaves, two should not be bartered
for one with a stated delay in the terms even if their racial type is
different."

Malik said, "There is nothing wrong in selling
what has been bought in such a transaction before taking possession of
all of it as long as you receive the price for it from some one other
than the original owner."

Malik said, "An addition to the
price must not be made for a foetus in the womb of its mother when she
is sold because that is gharar (an uncertain transaction). It is not
known whether the child will be male or female, good-looking or ugly,
normal or handicapped, alive or dead. All these things will affect the
price."

Malik said that in a transaction where a slave or
slave-girl was bought for one hundred dinars with a stated credit
period that if the seller regretted the sale there was nothing wrong
in him asking the buyer to revoke it for ten dinars which he would pay
him immediately or after a period and he would forgo his right to the
hundred dinars which he was owed.

Malik said, "However, if
the buyer regrets and asks the seller to revoke the sale of a slave or
slave-girl in consideration of which he will pay an extra ten dinars
immediately or on credit terms, extended beyond the original term,
that should not be done. It is disapproved of because it is as if, for
instance, the seller is buying the one hundred dinars which is not yet
due on a year's credit term before the year expires for a slave-girl
and ten dinars to be paid immediately or on credit term longer than
the year. This falls into the category of selling gold for gold when
delayed terms enter into it."

Malik said that it was not
proper for a man to sell a slave-girl to another man for one hundred
dinars on credit and then to buy her back for more than the original
price or on a credit term longer than the original term for which he
sold her. To understand why that was disapproved of in that case, the
example of a man who sold a slave-girl on credit and then bought her
back on a credit term longer than the original term was looked at. He
might have sold her for thirty dinars with a month to pay and then buy
her back for sixty dinars with a year or half a year to pay. The
outcome would only be that his goods would have returned to him just
like they were and the other party would have given him thirty dinars
on a month's credit against sixty dinars on a year or half a year's
credit. That was not to be done.

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Abdullah ibn Umar
that Umar ibn al-Khattab said, "If a slave who has wealth is sold,
that wealth belongs to the seller unless the buyer stipulates its
inclusion."

Malik said, "The generally agreed upon way of
doing things among us is that if the buyer stipulates the inclusion of
the slave's property whether it be cash, debts, or goods of known or
unknown value, then they belong to the buyer, even if the slave
possesses more than that for which he was purchased, whether he was
bought for cash, as payment for a debt, or in exchange for goods. This
is possible because a master is not asked to pay zakat on his slave's
property. If a slave has a slave-girl, it is halal for him to have
intercourse with her by his right of possession. If a slave is freed
or put under contract (kitaba) to purchase his freedom, then his
property goes with him. If he becomes bankrupt, his creditors take his
property and his master is not liable for any of his debts."

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr ibn
Muhammad ibn Amr ibn Hazm that Aban ibn Uthman and Hisham ibn Ismail
used to mention in their khutbas built-in liability agreements in the
sale of slaves, to cover both a three day period and a similar clause
covering a year. Malik explained, "The defects a lave or slave-girl
are found to have from the time they are bought until the end of the
three days are the responsibility of the seller. The year agreement is
to cover insanity, leprosy, and loss of limbs due to disease. After a
year, the seller is free from any liability."

Malik said,"An
inheritor or someone else who sells a slave or slave-girl without any
such built-in guarantee is not responsible for any fault in the slave
and there is no liability agreement held against him unless he was
aware of a fault and concealed it. If he was aware of a fault, the
lack of guarantee does not protect him. The purchase is returned. In
our view, built-in liability agreements only apply to the purchase of
slaves."

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Salim ibn
Abdullah that Abdullah ibn Umar sold one of his slaves for eight
hundred dirhams with the stipulation that he was not responsible for
defects. The person who bought the slave complained to Abdullah ibn
Umar that the slave had a disease which he had not told him about.
They argued and went to Uthman ibn Affan for a decision . The man
said, "He sold me a slave with a disease which he did not tell me
about." Abdullah said, "I sold to him with the stipulation that I was
not responsible." Uthman ibn Affan decided that Abdullah ibn Umar
should take an oath that he had sold the slave without knowing that he
had any disease. Abdullah ibn Umar refused to take the oath, so the
slave was returned to him and recovered his health in his possession.
Abdullah sold him afterwards for 1500 dirhams.

Malik said,
"The generally agreed upon way of doing things among us about a man
who buys a female slave and she becomes pregnant, or who buys a slave
and then frees him, or if there is any other such matter which has
already happened so that he cannot return his purchase, and a clear
proof is established that there was a fault in that purchase when it
was in the hands of the seller or the fault is admitted by the seller
or someone else, is that the slave or slave-girl is assessed for its
value with the fault it is found to have had on the day of purchase
and the buyer is refunded,from what he paid,the difference between the
price of a slave who is sound and a slave with such a defect.

Malik said, "The generally agreed upon way of doing things among us
regarding a man who buys a slave and then finds out that the slave has
a defect for which he can be returned and meanwhile another defect has
happened to the slave whilst in his possession, is that if the defect
which occurred to the slave in his possession has harmed him, like
loss of a limb, loss of an eye, or something similar, then he has a
choice. If he wants, he can have the price of the slave reduced
commensurate with the defect (he bought him with ) according to the
prices on the day he bought him, or if he likes, he can pay
compensation for the defect which the slave has suffered in his
possession and return him. The choice is up to him. If the slave dies
in his possession, the slave is valued with the defect which he had on
the day of his purchase. It is seen what his price would really have
been. If the price of the slave on the day of purchase without fault
was 100 dinars, and his price on the day of purchase with fault would
have been 80 dinars, the price is reduced by the difference. These
prices are assessed according to the market value on the day the slave
was purchased . "

Malik said, "The generally agreed upon way
of doing things among us is that if a man returns a slave girl in whom
he has found a defect and he has already had intercourse with her, he
must pay what he has reduced of her price if she was a virgin. If she
was not a virgin, there is nothing against his having had intercourse
with her because he had charge of her."

Malik said, "The
generally agreed upon way of doing things among us regarding a person,
whether he is an inheritor or not, who sells a slave, slave-girl, or
animal without a liability agreement is that he is not responsible for
any defect in what he sold unless he knew about the fault and
concealed it. If he knew that there was a fault and concealed it, his
declaration that he was free of responsibility does not absolve him,
and what he sold is returned to him."

Malik spoke about a
situation where a slave-girl was bartered for two other slave-girls
and then one of the slave-girls was found to have a defect for which
she could be returned. He said, "The slave-girl worth two other slave-
girls is valued for her price. Then the other two slave-girls are
valued, ignoring the defect which the one of them has. Then the price
of the slave-girl sold for two slave-girls is divided between them
according to their prices so that the proportion of each of them in
her price is arrived at - to the higher priced one according to her
higher price, and to the other according to her value. Then one looks
at the one with the defect, and the buyer is refunded according to the
amount her share is affected by the defect, be it little or great. The
price of the two slave-girls is based on their market value on the day
that they were bought."

Malik spoke about a man who bought a
slave and hired him out on a long-term or short-term basis and then
found out that the slave had a defect which necessitated his return.
He said that if the man returned the slave because of the defect, he
kept the hire and revenue. "This is the way in which things are done
in our city. That is because, had the man bought a slave who then
built a house for him, and the value of the house was many times the
price of the slave, and he then found that the slave had a defect for
which he could be returned, and he  was returned, he would not have to
make payment for the work the slave had done for him. Similarly, he
would keep any revenue from hiring him out, because he had charge of
him. This is the way of doing things among us."

Malik said,
"The way of doing things among us when someone buys several slaves in
one lot and then finds that one of them has been stolen, or has a
defect, is that he looks at the one he finds has been stolen or the
one in which he finds a defect. If he is the pick of those slaves, or
the most expensive, or it was for his sake that he bought them, or he
is the one in whom people see the most excellence, then the whole sale
is returned. If the one who is found to be stolen or to have a defect
is not the pick of the slaves, and he did not buy them for his sake,
and there is no special virtue which people see in him, the one who is
found to have a defect or to have been stolen is returned as he is,
and the buyer is refunded his portion of the total price."

bought a slave-girl from his wife, Zaynab Ath Thaqafiyya. She made a
condition to him, that if he bought her, she could always buy her back
for the price that he paid. Abdullah ibn Masud asked Umar ibn al-
Khattab about that and Umar ibn al-Khattab said, "Do not go near her
while anyone has a condition concerning her over you."

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
would say, "A man should not have intercourse with a slave girl except
one whom, if he wished, he could sell, if he wished, he could give
away, if he wished, he could keep, if he wished, he could do with her
what he wanted ."

Malik said that a man who bought a slave-
girl on condition that he did not sell her, give her away, or do
something of that nature, was not to have intercourse with her. That
was because he was not permitted to sell her or to give her away, so
if he did not own that from her, he did not have complete ownership of
her because an exception had been made concerning her by the hand of
someone else. If that sort of condition entered into it, it was a
messy situation, and the sale was not recommended.

melons, and carrots is that it is halal to sell them when it is clear
that they have begun to ripen. Then the buyer has what grows until the
season is over. There is no specific timing laid down for that because
the time is well known with people, and it may happen that the crop
will be affected by blight and put a premature end to the season. If
blight strikes and a third or more of the crop is damaged, an
allowance for that is deducted from the price of purchase."

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from
Da'ud ibn al-Husayn from Abu Sufyan, the mawla of Ibn Abi Ahmad, from
Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant

estimation of what the produce would be when the crop was less than
five awsuq or equal to five awsuq. Da'ud wasn't sure whether he said
five awsuq or less than five.

Malik said, ''Ariyas can be
sold for an estimation of what amount of dried dates will be produced.
The crop is examined and estimated while still on the palm. This is
allowed because it comes into the category of delegation of
responsibility, handing over rights, and involving a partner. Had it
been like a form of sale, no one would have made someone else a
partner in the produce until it was ready nor would he have renounced
his right to any of it or put someone in charge of it until the buyer
had taken possession."

him or to revoke the sale, but the owner made an oath not to do so.
The mother of the buyer went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, and told him about it. The Messengerof
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'By this oath,
he has sworn not to do good.' The owner of the orchard heard about it

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'r-Rijal, Muhammad ibn
Abdar-Rahman ibn Haritha that his mother, Amra bint Abd ar-Rahman used
to sell her fruit and keep some of it aside.

Malik said, "The
generally agreed upon way of doing things among us is that when a man
sells the fruit of his orchard, he can keep aside up to a third of the
fruit, but that is not to be exceeded. There is no harm in what is
less than a third."

Malik added that he thought there was no
harm for a man to sell the fruit of his orchard and keep aside only
the fruit of a certain palm-tree or palm-trees which he had chosen and
whose number he had specified, because the owner was only keeping
aside certain fruit of his own orchard and everything else he sold.

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al-
Musayyab that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, forbade muzabana and muhaqala. Muzabana was selling fresh
dates for dried dates. Muhaqala was buying unharvested wheat in
exchange for threshed wheat and renting land in exchange for wheat.

Ibn Shihab added that he had asked Said ibn al-Musayyab about
renting land for gold and silver. He said, "There is no harm in it."

Malik said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, forbade muzabana. The explanation of muzabana is that
it is buying something whose number, weight and measure is not known
with something whose number, weight or measure is known, for instance,
if a man has a stack of food whose measure is not known, either of
wheat, dates, or whatever food, or the man has goods of wheat, date
kernels, herbs, safflower, cotton, flax, silk, and does not know its
measure or weight or number and then a buyer approaches him and
proposes that he weigh or measure or count the goods, but, before he
does, he specifies a certain weight, or measure, or number and
guarantees to pay the price for that amount, agreeing that whatever
falls short of that amount is a loss against him and whatever is in
excess of that amount is a gain for him. That is not a sale. It is
taking risks and it is an uncertain transaction. It falls into the
category of gambling because he is not buying something from him for
something definite which he pays. Everything which resembles this is
also forbidden."

Malik said that another example of that was,
for instance, a man proposing to another man, "You have cloth. I will
guarantee you from this cloth of yours so many hooded cloaks, the
measureof each cloak to be such-and-such, (naming a measurement).
Whatever loss there is, is against me and I will fulfill you the
specified amount and whatever excess there is, is mine." Or perhaps
the man proposed, "I will guarantee you from this cloth of yours so
many shirts, the measurement of each shirt to be such-and-such, and
whatever loss there is, is against me and I will fulfill the specified
amount and whatever excess there is, is mine." Or perhaps a man
proposed to a man who had cattle or camel hides, "I will cut up these
hides of yours into sandals on a pattern I will show you. Whatever
falls short of a hundred pairs, I will make up its loss and whatever
is over is mine because I guaranteed you." Another example was that a
man say to a man who had ben-nuts, "I will press these nuts of yours.
Whatever falls short of such-and-such a weight by the pound, I will
make it up, and whatever is more than that is mine."

Malik
said that all this and whatever else was like it or resembled it was
in the category of muzabana, which was neither good nor permitted. It
was also the same case for a man to say to a man, who had fodder
leaves, date kernels, cotton, flax, herbs or safflower, "I will buy
these leaves from you in exchange for such-and-such a sa, (indicating
leaves which are pounded like his leaves) . . or these date kernels
for such-and-such a sa of kernels like them, and the like of that in
the case of safflower, cotton, flax and herbs."

Malik said,
"All this is what we have described of muzabana."


book_author_ar: الإمام مالك بن أنس

hadith_text_en:
Malik said, "There is no harm in buying dates from specified
trees or a specified orchard or buying milk from specified sheep when
the buyer starts to take them as soon as he has payed the price. That
is like buying oil from a container. A man buys some of it for a dinar
or two and gives his gold and stipulates that it be measured out for
him. There is no harm in that. If the container breaks and the oil is
wasted, the buyer has his gold back and there is no transaction
between them."

Malik said, "There is no harm in everything
which is taken right away as it is, like fresh milk and fresh picked
dates which the buyer can take on a day-to-day basis. If the supply
runs out before the buyer has what he has paid for in full, the seller
gives him back the portion of the gold that is owed to him, or else
the buyer takes other goods from him to the value of what he is owed
and which they mutually agree about. The buyer should stay with the
seller until he has taken it. It is disapproved of for the seller to
leave because the transaction would then come into the forbidden
category of a debt for a debt. If a stated time period for payment or
delivery enters into the transaction, it is also disapproved. Delay
and deferment are not permitted in it, and are only acceptable when it
is standard practice on definite terms by which the seller guarantees
it to the buyer, but this is not to be from one specific orchard or
from any specific ewes."

Malik was asked about a man who
bought an orchard from another man in which there were various types
of palm-trees - excellent ajwa palms, good kabis palms, adhq palms and
othertypes. The seller kept aside from the sale the produce of a
certain palm of his choice. Malik said, "That is not good because if
he does that, and keeps aside, for instance, dates of the ajwa variety
whose yield would be 15 sa, and he picks the dates of the kabis in
their place, and the yield of their dates is 10 sa or he picks the
ajwa which yield 15 sa and leaves the kabis which yield 10 sa, it is
as if he bought the ajwa for the kabis making allowances for their
difference of quality. This is the same as if a man dealing with a man
who has heaps of dates before him - a heap of 15 sa of ajwa, a heap of
10 sa of kabis, and a heap of 12 sa of cadhq, gives the owner of the
dates a dinar to let him choose and take whichever of the heaps he
likes." Malik said, "That is not good."

Malik was asked what
a man who bought fresh dates from the owner of an orchard and advanced
him a dinar was entitled to if the crop was spoilt. Malik said, "The
buyer makes a reckoning with the owner of the orchard and takes what
is due to him of the dinar. If the buyer has taken two-thirds of a
dinar's worth of dates, he gets back the third of a dinar which is
owed him. If the buyer has taken three-quarters of a dinar's worth of
dates, then he gets back the quarter which is owed to him, or they
come to a mutual agreement, and the buyer takes what is owed him from
his dinar from the owner of the orchard in something else of his
choosing. If, for instance, he prefers to take dry dates or some other
goods, he takes them according to what is due. If he takes dry dates
or some other goods, he should stay with him until he has been paid in
full."

Malik said, "This is the same situation as hiring out
a specified riding-camel or hiring out a slave tailor, carpenter or
some other kind of worker or letting a house and taking payment in
advance for the hire of the slave or the rent of the house or camel.
Then an accident happens to what has been hired resulting in death or
something else. The owner of the camel, slave or house returns what
remains of the rent of the camel, the hire of the slave or the rent of
the house to the one who advanced him the money, and the owner reckons
what will settle that up in full. If, for instance, he has provided
half of what the man paid for, he returns the remaining half of what
he advanced, or according to whatever amount is due." Malik said,
"Paying in advance for something which is on hand is only good when
the buyer takes possession of what he has paid for as soon as he hands
over the gold, whether it be slave, camel, or house, or in the case of
dates, he starts to pick them as soon as he has paid the money."

It is not good that there be any deferment or credit in such a
transaction.

Malik said, "An example illustrating what is
disapproved of in this situation is that, for instance, a man may say
that he will pay someone in advance for the use of his camel to ride
in the hajj, and the hajj is still some time off, or he may say
something similar to that about a slave or a house. When he does that,
he only pays the money in advance on the understanding that if he
finds the camel to be sound at the time the hire is due to begin, he
will take it by virtue of what he has already paid. If an accident, or
death, or something happens to the camel, then he will get his money
back and the money he paid in advance will be considered as a loan."

Malik said, "This is distinct from someone who takes
immediate possession of what he rents or hires, so that it does not
fall into the category of 'uncertainty,' or disapproved payment in
advance. That is following a common practice. An example of that is
that a man buys a slave, or slave-girl, and takes possession of them
and pays their price. If something happens to them within the period
of the year indemnification contract, he takes his gold back from the
one from whom he bought it. There is no harm in that. This is the
precedent of the sunna in the matter of selling slaves."

Malik said, "Someone who rents a specified slave, or hires a specified
camel, for a future date, at which time he will take possession of the
camel or slave, has not acted properly because he did not take
possession of what he rented or hired, nor is he advancing a loan
which the person is responsible to pay back."

hadith_text_en:
Malik said, "The generally agreed on way of doing things among us
is that some one who buys some fruit, fresh or dry, should not resell
it until he gets full possession of it. He should not barter things of
the same type, except hand to hand. Whatever can be made into dry
fruit to be stored and eaten, should not be bartered for its own kind,
except hand to hand, like for like, when it is the same kind of fruit.
In the case of two different kinds of fruit, there is no harm in
bartering two of one kind for one of another, hand to hand on the
spot. It is not good to set delayed terms. As for produce which is not
dried and stored but is eaten fresh like water melon, cucumber, melon,
carrots, citron, medlars, pomegranates, and soon, which when dried no
longer counts as fruit, and is not a thing which is stored up as is
fruit, I think that it is quite proper to barter such things two for
one of the same variety hand to hand. If no term enters into it, there
is no harm in it."

repeated the question to him, and Abdullah continued to forbid him
until he came to the door of the mosque or to an animal that he
intended to mount. Then Abdullah ibn Umar said, 'A dinar for a dinar,
and a dirham for a dirham. There is no increase between them. This is
the command of ourProphet to us and our advice to you.' "

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said heard Said ibn
al-Musayyab say, "Keeping gold and silver out of circulation is part
of working corruption in the land."

Malik said, "There is no
harm in buying gold with silver or silver with gold without measuring
if it is unminted or a piece of jewellery which has been made. Counted
dirhams and counted dinars should not be bought without reckoning
until they are known and counted. To abandon number and buy them at
random would only be to speculate. That is not part of the business
transactions of Muslims. As for what is weighed of unminted objects
and jewellery, there is no harm in buying such things without
measuring. To buy them without measuring is like buying wheat, dried
dates, and such food-stuffs, which are sold without measuring, even
though things like them are measured "

Malik spoke about
buying a Qur'an, a sword or a signet ring which had some gold or
silver work on it with dinars or dirhams. He said, "The value of the
object bought with dinars, which has gold in it is looked at. If the
value of the gold is up to one-third of the price, it is permitted and
there is no harm in it if the sale is hand to hand and there is no
deferment in it. When something is bought with silver which has silver
in it, the value is looked at. If the value of the silver is one-
third, it is permitted and there is no harm in it if the sale is hand
to hand. That is still the way of doing things among us."

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Malik ibn Aus
ibn al-Hadathan an-Nasri that one time he asked to exchange 100
dinars. He said, "Talha ibn Ubaydullah called me over and we made a
mutual agreement that he would make an exchange for me. He took the
gold and turned it about in his hand, and then said, 'I can't do it
until my treasurer brings the money to me from al-Ghaba.' Umar ibn al-
Khattab was listening and Umar said, 'By Allah! Do not leave him until
you have taken it from him!' Then he said, 'The Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Gold for silver is
usury except hand to hand. Wheat for wheat is usury except hand to
hand. Dates for dates is usury except hand to hand. Barley for barley
is usury except hand to hand." "'

Malik said, "When a man
buys dirhams with dinars and then finds a bad dirham among them and
wants to return it, the exchange of the dinars breaks down, and he
returns the silver and takes back his dinars. The explanation of what
is disapproved of in that is that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Gold for silver is usury except
hand to hand.' and Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'If someone asks you to
wait to be paid until he has gone back to his house, do not leave
him.' When he returns a dirham to him from the exchange after he has
left him, it is like a debt or something deferred. For that reason, it
is disapproved of, and the exchange collapses. Umar ibn al-Khattab
wanted that all gold, silver and food should not be sold for goods to
be paid later. He did not want there to be any delay or deferment in
any such sale, whether it involved one commodity or different sorts of

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yazid ibn Abdullah ibn Qusayt
saw Said ibn al-Musayyab sell gold counterpoising for gold. He poured
his gold into one pan of the scales, and the man with whom he was
counterpoising put his gold in the other pan of the scale and when the
tongue of the scales was balanced, they took and gave.

Malik
said, "According to the way things are done among us there is no harm
in selling gold for gold, and silver for silver by counterpoising
weight, even if 11 dinars are taken for 10 dinars hand to hand, when
the weight of gold is equal, coin for coin, even if the number is
different. Dirhams in such a situation are treated the same way as
dinars."

Malik said, "If, when counterpoising gold for gold
or silver for silver, there is a difference of weight, one party
should not give the other the value of the difference in silver or
something else. Such a transaction is ugly and a means to usury
because if one of the parties were permitted to take the difference
for a separate price, it could be as if he had bought it separately,
so he would be permitted. Then it would be possible for him to ask for
many times the value of the difference in order to permit the
completion of the transaction between the two parties.

Malik
said, "If he had really been sold the difference without anything else
with it, he would not have taken it for a tenth of the price for which
he took it in order to put a 'legal front' on the transaction. This
leads to allowing what is forbidden . The matter is forbidden."

Malik said that it was not good when counterpoising to give good
old gold coins and put along with them unminted gold in exchange for
worn kufic gold, which was unpopular and to then treat the exchange as
like for like.

Malik said, "The commentary on why that is
disapproved is that the owner of the good gold uses the excellence of
his old gold coins as an excuse to throw in the unminted gold with it.
Had it not been for the superiority of his (good) gold over the gold
of the other party, the other party would not have counterpoised the
unminted gold for his kufic gold, and the deal would have been
refused.

"It is like a man wanting to buy three sa of ajwa
dried dates for two sa and a mudd of kabis dates, and on being told
that it was not good, then offering two sa of kabis and a sa of poor
dates desiring to make the sale possible. That is not good because the
owner of the ajwa should not give him a sa of ajwa for a sa of poor
dates. He would only give him that because of the excellence of kabis
dates.

"Or it is like a man asking some one to sell him three
sa of white wheat for two and a half sa of Syrian wheat, and being
told that it was not good except like for like, and so offering two sa
of wheat and one sa of barley intending to make the sale possible
between them. That is not good because no one would have given a sa of
barley for a sa of white wheat had that sa been by itself. It was only
given because of the excellence of Syrian wheat over the white wheat.
This is not good. It is the same as the case of the unminted gold."

Malik said, "Where gold, silver and food, things which should
only be sold like for like, are concerned, something disliked and of
poor quality should not be put with something good and desirable in
order to make the sale possible and to make a bad situation halal.
When something of desirable quality is put with something of poor
quality and it is only included so that its excellence in quality is
noticed, something is being sold which if it had been sold on its own,
would not have been accepted and to which the buyer would not have
paid any attention. It is only accepted by the buyer because of the
superiority of what comes with it over his own goods. Transactions
involving gold, silver, or food, must not have anything of this
description enter into them. If the owner of the poor quality goods
wants to sell them, he sells them on their own, and does not put
anything with them. There is no harm if it is like that."

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that receipts
were given to people in the time of Marwan ibn al-Hakam for the
produce of the market at al-Jar. People bought and sold the receipts
among themselves before they took delivery of the goods. Zayd Thabit
and one of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, went to Marwan ibn al-Hakam and said,
"Marwan! Do you make usury halal?" He said, "I seek refuge with Allah!
What is that?" He said, "These receipts which people buy and sell
before they take delivery of the goods." Marwan therefore sent a guard
to follow them and to take them from people's hands and return them to
their owners.

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that a man
wanted to buy food from a man in advance. The man who wanted to sell
the food to him went with him to the market, and he began to show him
heaps, saying, "Which one would you like me to buy for you." The buyer
said to him, "Are you selling me what you do not have?" So they came
to Abdullah ibn Umarand mentioned that to him. Abdallah ibn Umar said
to the buyer, "Do not buy from him what he does not have." He said to
the seller, "Do not sell what you do not have."

man who buys whatever Allah wills of the receipts for the provisions
which people are offered at al-Jar. I want to take payment for goods
that I guarantee to deliver at a future date." Said said to him, "Do
you intend to settle these things with receipts for provisions you
have bought?" He said, "Yes." So he forbade that.

Malik said,
"The generally agreed on way of doing things among us in which there
is no dispute, about buying food - wheat, barley, durra-sorghum, pearl
millet, or any pulse or anything resembling pulses on which zakat is
obliged, or condiments of any sort - oil, ghee, honey, vinegar,
cheese, sesame oil, milk and so on, is that the buyer should not re-
sell any of that until he has taken possession and complete delivery
of it.

Hazm, and Ibn Shihab forbade that a man sell wheat for gold and then
buy dates with that gold before he had received the gold from the
transaction in which he sold the wheat. There is no harm for someone
to buy dates on delayed terms, on the strength of the gold for which
he sold the wheat, from someone other than the person to whom he sold
the wheat before taking possession of the gold, and to refer the one
from whom he bought the dates to his debtor who bought the wheat, for
the gold he is owed for the dates."

Malik said, "I asked more
than one of the people of knowledge about that and they did not see
any harm in it."

hadith_text_en:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
said that there was no harm in a man making an advance to another man
for food, with a set description and price until a set date, as long
as it was not in crops, or dates which had not begun to ripen.

Malik said, "The way of doing things among us concerning someone
who makes an advance for foodstuffs at a known rate until a stated
date, and the date arrives and he finds that there is not enough of
what he was sold with the seller to fulfill his order, and so he
revokes the sale, is that he must only take back the silver, gold, or
price which he paid exactly. He does not buy anything else from the
man for the same price until he has got back what he paid. That is
because if he took something else besides the price which he paid him
or exchanged it for goods other than the goods which he bought from
him, it would be selling food before getting delivery of it."

Malik said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, forbade selling food before getting delivery of it."

Malik said that it was not good if the buyer regretted his purchase
and asked the seller to revoke the sale for him and he would not press
him immediately for what he had paid. The people of knowledge forbade
that. That was because when the food was made ready for the buyer by
the seller, the buyer deferred his due from the seller in order that
he might revoke the sale for him. That was the sale of food with
delayed terms before taking delivery of the food.

Malik said,
"The explanation of that is that when the date of delivery comes and
the buyer dislikes the food, the seller takes by it money to be paid
later and so it is not revocation. Revocation is that in which neither
the buyer nor the seller is increased. When increase occurs by
deferment of payment for a time period, or by anything which increases
one of them over the other or anything which gives one of them profit,
it is not revocation. When either of them do that, revocation becomes
a sale. There is an indulgence for revocation, partnership, and
transfer, as long as i ncrease, decrease, or deferment does not come
into them. If increase, decrease, or deferment comes into it, it
becomes a sale. Whatever makes a sale halal makes it halal and
whatever makes a sale haram makes it haram."

Malik said, "If
someone pays in advance for Syrian wheat, there is no harm if he takes
a load after the term falls due."

Malik said, "It is the same
with whoever advances for any kind of thing. There is no harm in him
taking better than whatever he has made an advance for or worse than
it after the agreed delivery date. The explanation of that is that if,
for instance, a man advances for a certain weight of wheat. There is
no harm if he decides to take some barley or Syrian wheat. If he has
made an advance for good dates, there is no harm if he decides to take
poor quality dates. If he paid in advance for red raisins, there is no
harm if he takes black ones, when it happens after the agreed delivery
date, and when the measure of what he takes is like the measure of
what he paid for in advance."
