حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ الزِّبْرِقَانَ أَبَا هَمَّامٍ، حَدَّثَهُمْ - قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ وَكَانَ ثِقَةً - عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ وَإِنْ كَانَ أَخَاهُ أَوْ أَبَاهُ ‏"‏ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ سَمِعْتُ حَفْصَ بْنَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِلاَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ كَانَ يُقَالُ لاَ يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ . وَهِيَ كَلِمَةٌ جَامِعَةٌ لاَ يَبِيعُ لَهُ شَيْئًا وَلاَ يَبْتَاعُ لَهُ شَيْئًا .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আনাস ইবনু মালিক (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ শহরবাসী যেন গ্রামবাসীর পণ্য বিক্রি না করে, যদিও সে তার ভাই অথবা পিতা হয়। আনাস ইবনু মালিক (রাঃ) সূত্রে আরেক বর্ণনায় রয়েছেঃ লোকেরা বলে থাকে, ‘‘শহরবাসী গ্রামবাসীর পণ্য বিক্রয় করবে না’’ এটি ব্যাপক অর্থবোধক বাক্য। অর্থাৎ তার পক্ষ হয়ে কিছু বিক্রিও করবে না এবং কিনবেও না।
