وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ عَنْ بَيْعٍ الْحَيَوَانِ، اثْنَيْنِ بِوَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ فَقَالَ لاَ بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ . قَالَ مَالِكٌ الأَمْرُ الْمُجْتَمَعُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَنَا أَنَّهُ لاَ بَأْسَ بِالْجَمَلِ بِالْجَمَلِ مِثْلِهِ وَزِيَادَةِ دَرَاهِمَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَلاَ بَأْسَ بِالْجَمَلِ بِالْجَمَلِ مِثْلِهِ وَزِيَادَةِ دَرَاهِمَ الْجَمَلُ بِالْجَمَلِ يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَالدَّرَاهِمُ إِلَى أَجَلٍ . قَالَ وَلاَ خَيْرَ فِي الْجَمَلِ بِالْجَمَلِ مِثْلِهِ وَزِيَادَةِ دَرَاهِمَ الدَّرَاهِمُ نَقْدًا وَالْجَمَلُ إِلَى أَجَلٍ وَإِنْ أَخَّرْتَ الْجَمَلَ وَالدَّرَاهِمَ لاَ خَيْرَ فِي ذَلِكَ أَيْضًا . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَلاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يَبْتَاعَ الْبَعِيرَ النَّجِيبَ بِالْبَعِيرَيْنِ أَوْ بِالأَبْعِرَةِ مِنَ الْحَمُولَةِ مِنْ مَاشِيَةِ الإِبِلِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ مِنْ نَعَمٍ وَاحِدَةٍ فَلاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يُشْتَرَى مِنْهَا اثْنَانِ بِوَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ إِذَا اخْتَلَفَتْ فَبَانَ اخْتِلاَفُهَا وَإِنْ أَشْبَهَ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضًا وَاخْتَلَفَتْ أَجْنَاسُهَا أَوْ لَمْ تَخْتَلِفْ فَلاَ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهَا اثْنَانِ بِوَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَتَفْسِيرُ مَا كُرِهَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَنْ يُؤْخَذَ الْبَعِيرُ بِالْبَعِيرَيْنِ لَيْسَ بَيْنَهُمَا تَفَاضُلٌ فِي نَجَابَةٍ وَلاَ رِحْلَةٍ فَإِذَا كَانَ هَذَا عَلَى مَا وَصَفْتُ لَكَ فَلاَ يُشْتَرَى مِنْهُ اثْنَانِ بِوَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ وَلاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ تَبِيعَ مَا اشْتَرَيْتَ مِنْهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْتَوْفِيَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ الَّذِي اشْتَرَيْتَهُ مِنْهُ إِذَا انْتَقَدْتَ ثَمَنَهُ . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَمَنْ سَلَّفَ فِي شَىْءٍ مِنَ الْحَيَوَانِ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى فَوَصَفَهُ وَحَلاَّهُ وَنَقَدَ ثَمَنَهُ فَذَلِكَ جَائِزٌ وَهُوَ لاَزِمٌ لِلْبَائِعِ وَالْمُبْتَاعِ عَلَى مَا وَصَفَا وَحَلَّيَا وَلَمْ يَزَلْ ذَلِكَ مِنْ عَمَلِ النَّاسِ الْجَائِزِ بَيْنَهُمْ وَالَّذِي لَمْ يَزَلْ عَلَيْهِ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ بِبَلَدِنَا .


Yahya related to me that Malik asked Ibn Shihab about sellinganimals, two for one with delayed terms. He said, "There is no harm init."Malik said, "The generally agreed on way of doing thingsamong us is that there is no harm in bartering a camel for a camellike it and adding some dirhams to the exchange, from hand to hand.There is no harm in bartering a camel for a camel like it with somedirhams on top of the exchange, the camels to be exchanged from handto hand, and the dirhams to be paid within a period." He said, "Thereis no good however in bartering a camel for a camel like it with somedirhams on top of it, with the dirhams paid in cash and the camel tobe delivered later. If both the camel and the dirhams are deferredthere is no good in that either."Malik said, "There is noharm in buying a riding camel with two or more pack-camels, if theyare from inferior stock. There is no harm in bartering two of them forone with delayed terms, if they are different and their difference isclear. If they resemble each other whether their species are differentor not, two are not to be taken for one with delayed terms."Malik said, "The explanation of what is disapproved of in that, isthat a camel should not be bought with two camels when there is nodistinction between them in speed or hardiness. If this is accordingto what I have described to you, then one does not buy two of them forone with delayed terms. There is no harm in selling those of them youbuy before you complete the deal to somebody other than the one fromwhom you bought them if you get the price in cash."Maliksaid, "It is permitted for someone to advance something on animals fora fixed term and describe the amount and pay its price in cash.Whatever the buyer and seller have described is obliged for them. Thatis still permitted behaviour between people and what the people ofknowledge in our land do."
