حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا نَهَی رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُتَلَقَّی الرُّکْبَانُ وَلَا يَبِيعَ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ قُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ مَا قَوْلُهُ لَا يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ قَالَ لَا يَکُونُ لَهُ سِمْسَارًا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 2274
Narrated Tawus: Ibn `Abbas said, "The Prophet forbade the meeting of caravans (on the way) and ordained that no townsman is permitted to sell things on behalf of a bedouin." I asked Ibn `Abbas, "What is the meaning of his saying, 'No townsman is permitted to sell things on behalf of a bedouin.' " He replied, "He should not work as a broker for him."
