Sahih al-Bukhari 2205 (Book 34, Hadith 151) #2114
Forbidden Bargains

SUMMARY: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade certain types of bargains.

Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Messenger forbade Al-Muzabana, ie to sell ungathered dates of one's garden for measured dried dates or fresh ungathered grapes for measured dried grapes; or standing crops for measured quantity of foodstuff. He forbade all such bargains.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْمُزَابَنَةِ أَنْ يَبِيعَ ثَمَرَ حَائِطِهِ إِنْ كَانَ نَخْلاً بِتَمْرٍ كَيْلاً، وَإِنْ كَانَ كَرْمًا أَنْ يَبِيعَهُ بِزَبِيبٍ كَيْلاً أَوْ كَانَ زَرْعًا أَنْ يَبِيعَهُ بِكَيْلِ طَعَامٍ، وَنَهَى عَنْ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the prohibition of certain types of bargains. Allah's Messenger, Muhammad ﷺ, forbade Al-Muzabana which is a type of bargain where ungathered dates from one's garden are sold for measured dried dates or fresh ungathered grapes for measured dried grapes; or standing crops for measured quantity of foodstuff. He also forbade all other similar bargains. This hadith teaches us that we should not engage in any kind of bargain that involves unfairness and injustice to either party involved in the transaction. We should always strive to be fair and just when engaging in any kind of trade or exchange with others.
