মিশকাতুল মাসাবীহ ২৭০৫

Samura b. Jundub told that the Prophet, forbade selling animal for animals when payment was to be made at a later date.

Tirmidhi, Abu Da.wud, Nasa’i, Ibn Majah and Darimi transmitted it.

Usama b. Zaid reported the Prophet as saying, "Credit involves usury.” In a version he said, "There is no usury when payment is made on the spot.”

(Bukhari and Muslim.)

Sa'id b. al-Musayyib told in mursal form that God’s Messenger forbade the sale of meat for animals1. Sa'id said it was connected with the maisir2 of the people of pre-Islamic times.

It is transmitted in Sharh as-sunna.

1. i.e. meat sold in exchange for living animals.
2. A game of chance played with arrows for parts of a camel. The type of transaction mentioned in the tradition is evidently considered to contain something in the nature of a gamble.
