Narrator:Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّهُ

بَاعَ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَعِيرًا وَاشْتَرَطَ ظَهْرَهُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ ‏

Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah :

That he sold a camel to the Prophet (ﷺ) and made a condition that he could ride it to (return to) his family.

[Abu 'Eisa said:] This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. It has been reported through other routes from Jabir.

This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) and others. They consider it allowed to make a condition in a sale when it is one condition. This is the view of Ahmad and Ishaq.

Some of the people of knowledge said that it is not allowed to make a condition in a sale, nor to complete a sale when there is a condition for it.

Reported by At-Tirmidhi (No. 1253).

قَوْلُهُ : ( وَاشْتَرَطَ ظَهْرَهُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ ) وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ لِلصَّحِيحَيْنِ وَاسْتَثْنَيْت حُمْلَانَهُ إِلَى أَهْلِي بِضَمِّ الْحَاءِ الْمُهْمَلَةِ وَالْمُرَادُ الْحَمْلُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ الشَّوْكَانِيُّ : وَهُوَ يَدُلُّ عَلَى جَوَازِ الْبَيْعِ مَعَ اِسْتِثْنَاءِ الرُّكُوبِ. وَبِهِ قَالَ الْجُمْهُورُ , وَجَوَّزَهُ مَالِكٌ إِذَا كَانَتْ مَسَافَةُ السَّفَرِ قَرِيبَةً وَحَدَّهَا بِثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ. وَقَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ وَأَبُو حَنِيفَةَ وَآخَرُونَ : لَا يَجُوزُ ذَلِكَ سَوَاءٌ قَلَّتْ الْمَسَافَةُ أَوْ كَثُرَتْ وَاحْتَجُّوا بِحَدِيثِ النَّهْيِ عَنْ بَيْعٍ وَشَرْطٍ وَحَدِيثِ النَّهْيِ عَنْ الثُّنْيَا , وَأَجَابُوا عَنْ حَدِيثِ الْبَابِ بِأَنَّهُ قِصَّةُ عَيْنٍ تَدْخُلُهَا الِاحْتِمَالَاتُ…

While I was in the company of the Prophet (ﷺ) in one of his Ghazawat, he asked, "What is wrong with your camel? Will you sell it?" I replied in the affirmative and sold it to him. When he reached Medina, I took the camel to him in the morning and he paid me its price.
