Sunan Ibn Majah 2255 (Book 12, Hadith 119) #31607
Exchange of Equal Value

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ taught that goods should be exchanged for goods of equal value.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet said: '(Sell) silver for silver, gold for gold, barley for barley, wheat for wheat, like for like".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ غَزْوَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نُعْمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ الْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ وَالْحِنْطَةُ بِالْحِنْطَةِ مِثْلاً بِمِثْلٍ

Exchange goods with equal value.

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah teaches us the importance of exchanging goods with equal value. This means that if someone wants to buy something from you, they should give you an item or money of the same worth as what they are buying from you. This is a way to ensure fairness and justice in transactions between people. It also teaches us to be honest and not take advantage of others when trading items or services. Furthermore, it encourages us to think about how our actions affect others and strive for fairness in all our dealings with people.
