Hadith text
Narrated Sahl bin Abu Hathma:Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade the selling of fruits (fresh dates) for dried dates but allowed the sale of fruits on the 'Araya by estimation and their new owners might eat their dates fresh. Sufyan (in another narration) said, "I told Yahya (a sub-narrator) when I was a mere boy, 'Meccans say that the Prophet (ﷺ) allowed them the sale of the fruits on 'Araya by estimation.' Yahya asked, 'How do the Meccans know about it?' I replied, 'They narrated it (from the Prophet (ﷺ) ) through Jabir.' On that, Yahya kept quiet." Sufyan said, "I meant that Jabir belonged to Medina." Sufyan was asked whether in Jabir's narration there was any prohibition of selling fruits before their benefit is evident (i.e. no dangers of being spoilt or blighted). He replied that there was none
Sahl bin Abu Hathma bataate hain: Allah ke Rasool ne phalon (taazi khajoor) ko sookhi khajoor ke badle bechne se mana kiya, magar Araya par phalon ko andaza lagaakar bechne ki ijazat di, aur unke naye maalik apni taazi khajoor kha sakte the. Sufyan ne (ek doosri riwayat mein) kaha: "Maine Yahya se kaha, jabke main abhi bachcha tha: 'Mecca wale kehte hain ke Nabi ne unhe Araya par phalon ko andaza lagaakar bechne ki ijazat di.' Yahya ne pucha: 'Mecca walon ko iska kaise pata chala?' Maine jawab diya: 'Unhone yeh (Nabi se) Jabir ke zariye riwayat ki.'" Isspar Yahya khamosh ho gaye. Sufyan ne kaha: "Mera matlab tha ke Jabir Madina se the." Sufyan se pucha gaya kya Jabir ki riwayat mein phalon ko unki khoobi zaahir hone se pehle bechne ki mumaaniyat ka koi zikar hai. Unhone jawab diya ke aisa koi zikar nahi.
