The Forbidden Practice of Najsh

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) forbade the practice of offering more money than the worth of goods when buying them, in order to outbid someone else.

Malik said, from Nafi from Abdullah ibn Umar that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade najsh. Malik said, "Najsh is to offer a man more than the worth of his goods when you do not mean to buy them and someone else follows you in bidding".
قَالَ مَالِكٌ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَهَى عَنِ النَّجْشِ
