‏ ‏وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ ‏صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ‏ ‏إِذَا مَا أَحَدُكُمْ اشْتَرَى ‏ ‏لِقْحَةً ‏ ‏مُصَرَّاةً ‏ ‏أَوْ شَاةً ‏ ‏مُصَرَّاةً ‏ ‏فَهُوَ بِخَيْرِ النَّظَرَيْنِ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَحْلُبَهَا إِمَّا ‏ ‏يَرْضَى وَإِلَّا فَلْيَرُدَّهَا ‏ ‏وَصَاعًا ‏ ‏مِنْ تَمْرٍ ‏

English Translation

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'When one of you buys a milch-camel or a milch-sheep whose milk has been withheld to make it appear abundant, he has the choice of the better of two options after milking it: either he keeps it, or he returns it along with a sa' of dates.'
