Hadith #389

Arabic Text

English Translation

Al-Dahhak ibn Makhlad narrated to us, from Abdul-Hamid ibn Ja'far, my father narrated to me, from Sa'id ibn 'Umayr al-Ansari, who said: I sat with Abdullah ibn Umar and Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (رضي الله عنهما), and each of them narrated from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he said: "Gold for gold, silver for silver, wheat for wheat, barley for barley, dates for dates, salt for salt — like for like, equal for equal, hand to hand. Whoever gives more or takes more has engaged in riba. The one who takes and the one who gives are equal [in sin]."
