حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَی حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا کَانَ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي عُقْدَتِهِ ضَعْفٌ وَکَانَ يُبَايِعُ وَأَنَّ أَهْلَهُ أَتَوْا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ احْجُرْ عَلَيْهِ فَدَعَاهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَهَاهُ عَنْ ذَلِکَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَا أَصْبِرُ عَنْ الْبَيْعِ فَقَال إِذَا بَايَعْتَ فَقُلْ هَا وَلَا خِلَابَةَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2354
It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that there was a man at the time of the Messenger of Allah whose mental faculties were lacking, and he used to buy and sell. His family came to the Prophet and said, "O Messenger of Allah, stop him." So the Prophet called him, and told him not to do that. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I cannot bear to be away from business," He said, "If you engage in a transaction, then say: 'Take it (i.e. the goods) and don't cheat (me).'”
