و حَدَّثَنَاه يَحْيَی بْنُ يَحْيَی أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ نَهَی رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْأَرْضِ الْبَيْضَائِ سَنَتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 3929
Jabir b. `Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reportedthat Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had forbidden renting of land. Bukair (one of the narrators) said: Nafi` reported to me that he heard Ibn `Umar (Allah be pleased with them) saying: We usedto give land on rent; we then abandoned this practice when we heard the hadith of Rafi` b. Khadij.
