Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَبِيعُ الْإِبِلَ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّنَانِيرِ وَآخُذُ الدَّرَاهِمَ وَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ وَآخُذُ الدَّنَانِيرَ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ حُجْرَتَهُ فَأَخَذْتُ بِثَوْبِهِ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَخَذْتَ وَاحِدًا مِنْهُمَا بِالْآخَرِ فَلَا يُفَارِقَنَّكَ وَبَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُ بَيْعٌ.
English Translation
Yahya ibn Adam told us, Isra'il told us, from Simak, from Sa'id ibn Jubayr, from Ibn Umar, who said: I used to sell camels at al-Baqi'; I would sell for dinars and take dirhams in exchange, and sell for dirhams and take dinars. So I came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, while he intended to enter his chamber, and I took hold of his garment and asked him. He said: If you take one of the two for the other, let it not part from you while there remains a transaction between you and him unsettled.
