حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ ـ رضى الله عنهم ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَخَّصَ فِي الْعَرَايَا أَنْ تُبَاعَ بِخَرْصِهَا كَيْلاً‏.‏ قَالَ مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ وَالْعَرَايَا نَخَلاَتٌ مَعْلُومَاتٌ تَأْتِيهَا فَتَشْتَرِيهَا‏.‏
