حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ بْنِ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، وَأَبِي، هُرَيْرَةَ رضى الله عنهما أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم اسْتَعْمَلَ رَجُلاً عَلَى خَيْبَرَ، فَجَاءَهُمْ بِتَمْرٍ جَنِيبٍ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ أَكُلُّ تَمْرِ خَيْبَرَ هَكَذَا ‏"‏. فَقَالَ إِنَّا لَنَأْخُذُ الصَّاعَ مِنْ هَذَا بِالصَّاعَيْنِ، وَالصَّاعَيْنِ بِالثَّلاَثَةِ. فَقَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ تَفْعَلْ، بِعِ الْجَمْعَ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ، ثُمَّ ابْتَعْ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ جَنِيبًا ‏"‏. وَقَالَ فِي الْمِيزَانِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ.

Narrator: Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri and Abu Huraira

English translation
Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri and Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) employed someone as a governor at Khaibar. When the man came to Medina, he brought with him dates called Janib. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked him, "Are all the dates of Khaibar of this kind?" The man replied, "(No), we exchange two Sa's of bad dates for one Sa of this kind of dates (i.e. Janib), or exchange three Sa's for two." On that, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Don't do so, as it is a kind of usury (Riba) but sell the dates of inferior quality for money, and then buy Janib with the money". The Prophet said the same thing about dates sold by weight. (See Hadith No)
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ সা‘ঈদ খুদরী ও আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এক ব্যক্তিকে খায়বারের কর্মচারী নিয়োগ করলেন। সে বেশ কিছু উন্নতমানের খেজুর তাঁর নিকটে নিয়ে আসল। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, খায়বারের সব খেজুরই কি এরকম? সে বলল, ‘আমরা দু’ সা’র বদলে এর এক সা‘ নিয়ে থাকি কিংবা তিন সা‘র বদলে দু’ সা‘ নিয়ে থাকি। তখন নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, এরূপ কর না। মিশ্রিত খেজুর দিরহাম নিয়ে বিক্রি কর। তারপর এ দিরহাম দিয়েই উন্নতমানের খেজুর ক্রয় কর। ওজনে বিক্রয়যোগ্য বস্তুসমূহের ব্যাপারেও তিনি একই কথা বলেছেন। (২২০১, ২২০২) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ২১৩৮, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
