حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ سِمَاکِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ جَلَبْتُ أَنَا وَمَخْرَفَةُ الْعَبْدِيُّ بَزًّا مِنْ هَجَرَ فَجَائَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَاوَمَنَا سَرَاوِيلَ وَعِنْدَنَا وَزَّانٌ يَزِنُ بِالْأَجْرِ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا وَزَّانُ زِنْ وَأَرْجِحْ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2220
It was narrated that Suwaid bin Qais said: “Makhrafah Al-’Abdi and brought linens from Hajar.’ The Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H came to us to bargain with us with some trousers. There was someone with me who weighed (the goods) in exchange for a wage. So the Prophet P.B.U.H said to the one weighing: ‘Weigh and add more.’” (Sahih)
