2135 Any possible gain that you can make by breaking your Covenant and thus breaking Allah's Law must necessarily be<br />

miserable; while your own benefit is far greater in obeying Allah's Will and doing right. (16.95)<br />

43:33 – And were it not that (all) men might become of one (evil) way of life We would provide for<br />

everyone that blasphemes against (Allah) Most Gracious silver roofs for their houses and<br />

(silver) stair-ways on which to go up. 4636<br />

4636 So little value is attached in the spiritual world to silver or gold, or worldly ranks or adornments, that they would freely<br />

be at the disposal of everyone who denied or blasphemed Allah, were it not that in that case there would be too great<br />

temptation placed in the way of men, for they might all scramble to sell their spiritual life for wealth! They might<br />

have silver roofs and stair-ways, silver doors and thrones, and all kinds of adornments of gold. But Allah does not<br />

allow too great a temptation to be placed in the path of men. He distributes these things differently, some to unjust<br />

men, and some to just men, in various degrees, so that the possession of these is no test either of an unjust or a just<br />

life. His wisdom searches out motives far more subtle and delicate than any we are even aware of. (43.33)<br />

Hadith 40.6Selling Mudabbars<br />

Malik said, "The generally agreed on way of doing things in our community about a mudabbar is<br />

that the owner cannot sell him or change the position in which he has put him. If a debt overtakes<br />

the master, his creditors cannot sell the mudabbar as long as the master is alive…..<br />

Al-Muwatta Hadith<br />

Hadith 31.35<br />

Selling Gold for Silver, Minted and Unminted<br />

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdullah ibn Dinar from Abdullah ibn Umar that Umar ibn al-Khattab said, "Do not sell<br />

gold for gold except like for like. Do not increase part of it over another part. Do not sell silver for silver except like for like, and<br />

do not increase part of it over another part. Do not sell some of it which is there for some of it which is not. If someone asks<br />

you to wait for payment until he has been to his house, do not leave him. I fear rama for you." Rama is usury.<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 3.389<br />

Abdullah bin Umar<br />

Narrated by<br />

Allah's Apostle said, "Do not sell fruits of dates until they become free from all the dangers of being spoilt or blighted; and do<br />

not sell fresh dates for dry dates."<br />

Narrated Salim and 'Abdullah from Zaid bin Habit': "Later on Allah's Apostle permitted the selling of ripe fruits on trees for<br />

fresh dates or dried dates in Bai'-l-'Araya, and did not allow it for any other kind of sale."<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 3.384<br />

Narrated by<br />

Abu Said<br />

(Concerning exchange) that he heard Allah's Apostle saying, "Do not sell gold for gold unless equal in<br />

weight, and do not sell silver unless equal in weight."<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 3.403 Narrated by<br />

Anas bin Malik<br />

Allah's Apostle forbade the sale of fruits till they are almost ripe. He was asked what is meant by 'are almost ripe.' He replied,<br />

"Till they become red." Allah's Apostle further said, "If Allah spoiled the fruits, what right would one have to take the money of<br />

one's brother (i.e. other people)?"<br />

Narrated Ibn Shihab: If somebody bought fruits before their benefit is evident and then the fruits were spoiled with blights, the<br />

loss would be suffered by the owner (not the buyer).<br />

Narrated Salim bin 'Abdullah from Ibn Umar: Allah's Apostle said, "Do not sell or buy fruits before their benefit was evident<br />

and do not sell fresh fruits (dates) for dried dates."<br />

Al-Muwatta Hadith<br />

Hadith 31.45<br />

Buying on Delayed Terms and Re-Selling for Less on More Immediate<br />

Terms<br />

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that a man wanted to buy food from a man in advance. The man who<br />

wanted to sell the food to him went with him to the market, and he began to show him heaps, saying, "Which one would you<br />
