سنن نسائی · Hadith 3902
It was narrated that Mujahid said: “I took Tawus by the hand and brought him to Ibn Rafi’ bin Khadij, and he told him, narrating from his father, that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم forbade leasing land. Tawus rejected that and said: ‘I heard Ibn ‘Abbas (say) that he did not see anything wrong with that.” (Sahih) It was reported by Abu ‘Awanah, from Abu Husain, from Mujahid who said: “He said” from Rafi’, in Mursal form.
