Sunan Abi Dawud 3463 (Book 24, Hadith 48) #23753
Paying for Fruits in Advance

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that when buying fruits, one should pay for a specified measure and weight with a specified time fixed.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: When the Messenger of Allah came to Medina, they were paying one, two and three years in advance for fruits, so he said: Those who pay in advance for anything, must do for a specified measure and weight with a specified time fixed.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمِنْهَالِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَهُمْ يُسْلِفُونَ فِي التَّمْرِ السَّنَةَ وَالسَّنَتَيْنِ وَالثَّلاَثَةَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ مَنْ أَسْلَفَ فِي تَمْرٍ فَلْيُسْلِفْ فِي كَيْلٍ مَعْلُومٍ وَوَزْنٍ مَعْلُومٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مَعْلُومٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Be honest & fair while making purchases
EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad's teachings on paying for fruits in advance is an important lesson to remember. He taught that when buying fruits, one should pay for a specific amount of the fruit with a set amount of time and weight. This means that if someone pays in advance, they must know exactly how much they are paying for and how long it will last them. This ensures fairness between the buyer and seller as both parties know what is expected from them. It also prevents any confusion or disputes over payment or quality of goods received.

The Prophet's teachings on this matter emphasize the importance of being honest and fair in all transactions, especially those involving money or goods. It also encourages people to be mindful of their spending habits so as not to waste money unnecessarily by overpaying or buying more than what is needed at once.

Overall, this hadith serves as an important reminder to always be mindful when making purchases so that everyone involved can benefit from it fairly and honestly without any misunderstandings or disputes arising later on down the line.
