Tawus bataate hain: Ibn Abbas ne kaha: "Allah ke Rasool ne farmaya: 'Qafilon se raaste mein milne mat jaao (unke saaman khareedne ke liye bina unhe bazaar ki qeemat bataye); shehar ka rehne wala dehati ke maal ko uski taraf se na beche.' Maine Ibn Abbas se pucha: 'Iska kya matlab hai ke shehar ka rehne wala dehati ke maal ko na beche?' Unhone jawab diya: 'Iska matlab hai use uska dalaal (broker) nahi banna chahiye.'"
