Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ آشْتَرِي الذَّهَبَ بِالْفِضَّةِ أَوْ الْفِضَّةَ بِالذَّهَبِ قَالَ إِذَا أَخَذْتَ وَاحِدًا مِنْهُمَا بِالْآخَرِ فَلَا يُفَارِقْكَ صَاحِبُكَ وَبَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُ لَبْسٌ.
English Translation
Husayn ibn Muhammad told us: Isra'il told us, from Simak, from Sa'id ibn Jubayr, from Ibn 'Umar, who said: I asked the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, "Shall I buy gold with silver, or silver with gold?" He said, "When you take one of the two for the other, let your companion not part from you while there remains any ambiguity between you and him."
