Jami at-Tirmidhi 1230 (Book 14, Hadith 30) #26803
Prohibiting Gharar and Hasah Sales

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) prohibited the sale of Gharar and Hasah, which are two types of sales practices that were common during the time of Jahiliyyah.

Narrated Abu Hurairah: "The Messenger of Allah prohibited the Gharar sale, and the Hasah sale". He said: There are narrations on this topic from Ibn 'Umar, Ibn 'Abbas, Abu Sa'eed, and Anas. Abu 'Eisa said: This Hadith of Abu Hurairah is Hasan Sahih Hadith. This Hadith is acted upon according to the people of knowledge, they dislike the Gharar. Ash-Shafi'i said: "The Gharar sale includes selling fish that are in the wate, selling a slave that has escaped, selling birds that are in the sky, and similar type of sales. And the meaning of Hasah sale is when the seller says to the buyer: 'When I toss the pebble at you, then the sale between you and I is final'. This resembles the sale of Munabadhah and this is one of the selling practices of the people of Jahiliyyah".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْغَرَرِ وَبَيْعِ الْحَصَاةِ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَأَنَسٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ كَرِهُوا بَيْعَ الْغَرَرِ ‏.‏ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ وَمِنْ بُيُوعِ الْغَرَرِ بَيْعُ السَّمَكِ فِي الْمَاءِ وَبَيْعُ الْعَبْدِ الآبِقِ وَبَيْعُ الطَّيْرِ فِي السَّمَاءِ وَنَحْوُ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْبُيُوعِ ‏.‏ وَمَعْنَى بَيْعِ الْحَصَاةِ أَنْ يَقُولَ الْبَائِعُ لِلْمُشْتَرِي إِذَا نَبَذْتُ إِلَيْكَ بِالْحَصَاةِ فَقَدْ وَجَبَ الْبَيْعُ فِيمَا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ ‏.‏ وَهَذَا شَبِيهٌ بِبَيْعِ الْمُنَابَذَةِ وَكَانَ هَذَا مِنْ بُيُوعِ أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Be honest and fair in your dealings with others

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the prohibition of two types of sales practices that were common during the time of Jahiliyyah. The first type is called ‘Gharar’ which refers to selling something without knowing its exact details or condition. For example, selling fish in water or a slave who has escaped. The second type is called ‘Hasah’ which refers to when a seller says to a buyer that if he throws a pebble at him then it will be considered as finalizing their sale agreement. This practice resembles another practice called ‘Munabadhah’ which was also practiced by people during Jahiliyyyah. All these practices have been prohibited by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He wanted people to be honest and fair in their dealings with each other so they can build trust between them and create an environment where everyone can benefit from each other's services without any fear or doubt in their minds.
