حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَی وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَی الْمِصْرِيَّانِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ اشْتَرَی رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ الْأَعْرَابِ حِمْلَ خَبَطٍ فَلَمَّا وَجَبَ الْبَيْعُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اخْتَرْ فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ عَمْرَکَ اللَّهَ بَيِّعًا
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2184
It was narrated that Jâbir bin ‘Abdullâh said: “The Messenger of Allah bought a load of fodder from a Bedouin man. When the transaction was concluded, the Messenger of Allah said: ‘Choose (either to go ahead or to cancel the transaction).’ The Bedouin said:‘May Allah grant you a long life of good transactionf” (Da’if)
