Be honest and just in your trades

This hadith is about fair trade. It was narrated by Abu Sa’eed Al’Khudri and Abu Hurairah that the Prophet Muhammad appointed a man in charge of Kharibar, who brought some Janib dates. When asked if all the dates from Kharibar were like this, he said no. The Prophet then advised him not to sell these mixed dates for less than what they are worth, but instead to exchange them for Dirhams and use those Dirhams to buy the Janib Dates. This teaches us that we should always be fair when trading goods or services; we should never take advantage of someone else by selling something at an unfair price or exchanging something at an unequal value. We should always strive for fairness in our transactions so as not to take advantage of others or be taken advantage of ourselves.
