حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَی بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَقَ عَنْ سَالِمٍ الْمَکِّيِّ أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ بِحَلُوبَةٍ لَهُ عَلَی عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَزَلَ عَلَی طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَی أَنْ يَبِيعَ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ وَلَکِنْ اذْهَبْ إِلَی السُّوقِ فَانْظُرْ مَنْ يُبَايِعُکَ فَشَاوِرْنِي حَتَّی آمُرَکَ أَوْ أَنْهَاکَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3441
Narrated Salim al-Makki: That a bedouin told him that he brought a milch she-camel in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He alighted with Talhah ibn Ubaydullah (and wanted to sell his milch animal to him). He said: The Prophet ﷺ forbade a townsman to sell for a man from the desert. But go to the market and see who buys from you. consult me thereafter, and then I shall ask you (to sell) or forbid you.
