باب فِي الْمُزَارَعَةِ

English narration

Narrated by زيد بن ثابت الأنصاري

Narrated Urwah bin al-Zubair: That Zayd ibn Thabit said: May Allah forgive Rafi ibn Khadij. I swear by Allah, I have more knowledge of Hadith than him. Two persons of the Ansar (according to the version of Musaddad) came to him who were disputing with each other. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: If this is your position, then do not lease the agricultural land. The version of Musaddad has: So he (Rafi ibn Khadij) heard his statement: Do not lease agricultural lands.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ الْمَعْنَى ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ إِسْحَاق ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الْوَلِيدِ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ : يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لِرَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ ، أَنَا وَاللَّهِ أَعْلَمُ بِالْحَدِيثِ مِنْهُ ، إِنَّمَا أَتَاهُ رَجُلَانِ ، قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ : مِنِ الْأَنْصَارِ ، ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَنا ، قَدِ اقْتَتَلَا ، ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "

إِنْ كَانَ هَذَا شَأْنَكُمْ ، فَلَا تُكْرُوا الْمَزَارِعَ

" . زَادَ مُسَدَّدٌ ، فَسَمِعَ قَوْلَهُ : " لَا تُكْرُوا الْمَزَارِعَ " .
