حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ الْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

كُنْتُ أَبِيعُ الإِبِلَ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّنَانِيرِ وَآخُذُ الدَّرَاهِمَ وَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ وَآخُذُ الدَّنَانِيرَ آخُذُ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ وَأُعْطِي هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِ حَفْصَةَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رُوَيْدَكَ أَسْأَلُكَ إِنِّي أَبِيعُ الإِبِلَ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّنَانِيرِ وَآخُذُ الدَّرَاهِمَ وَأَبِيعُ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ وَآخُذُ الدَّنَانِيرَ آخُذُ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ وَأُعْطِي هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَهَا بِسَعْرِ يَوْمِهَا مَا لَمْ تَفْتَرِقَا وَبَيْنَكُمَا شَىْءٌ

I used to sell camels at al-Baqi for dinars and take dirhams for them, and sell for dirhams and take dinars for them. I would take these for these and give these for these. I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who was in the house of Hafsah. I said: Messenger of Allah, take it easy, I shall ask you (a question): I sell camels at al-Baqi'. I sell (them) for dinars and take dirhams and I sell for dirhams and take dinars. I take these for these, and give these for these. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: There is no harm in taking them at the current rate so long as you do not separate leaving something to be settled.

What scholars said about it

In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.

  • Abū Bakr Aḥmad b. al-Ḥusayn al-Bayhaqī

    الحديث ينفرد برفعه سماك بن حرب وقال شعبة رفعه لنا سماك بن حرب وأنا أفرقه

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3352
  • Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr

    لم يرو هذا الحديث أحد غير سماك بن حرب عن سعيد بن جبير عن ابن عمر مسندا وسماك ثقة عند قوم مضعف عند آخرين كان ابن المبارك يقول سماك بن حرب ضعيف الحديث وكان مذهب علي فيه نحو هذا

    machine translationNo one narrated this hadith as a connected, attributed report (musnad) except Simāk b. Ḥarb, from Saʿīd b. Jubayr, from Ibn ʿUmar. Simāk is trustworthy (thiqah) according to some and considered weak (muḍaʿʿaf) by others. Ibn al-Mubārak used to say: "Simāk b. Ḥarb is weak (ḍaʿīf) in hadith," and the position of ʿAlī regarding him was similar to this.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3352
  • al-Tirmidhi

    لا نعرفه مرفوعا إلا من حديث سماك بن حرب وذكر أنه روي عن ابن عمر موقوفا

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3352
