أَخْبَرَنِي الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَافِعَ بْنَ خَدِيجٍ عَنْ كِرَاءِ الْأَرْضِ بِالذَّهَبِ أَوِ الْوَرِقِ فَقَالَ
لَا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ إِنَّمَا كَانَ النَّاسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يُؤَاجِرُونَ مَا عَلَى الْمَاذِيَانَاتِ وَأَقْبَالِ الْجَدَاوِلِ فَيَسْلَمُ هَذَا وَيَهْلِكُ هَذَا وَيَسْلَمُ هَذَا وَيَهْلِكُ هَذَا وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لِلنَّاسِ كِرَاءٌ إِلَّا هَذَا فَلِذَلِكَ زَجَرَ عَنْهُ فَأَمَّا شَيْءٌ مَعْلُومٌ مَضْمُونٌ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِهِ وَافَقَهُ مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَلَى إِسْنَادِهِ وَخَالَفَهُ فِي لَفْظِهِ

✧ There is no harm in that. In the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, people used to rent out what was on the banks of streams and the openings of water channels, so one would be safe and another would perish, and one would be safe and another would perish. People had no other lease than this, so for that reason he prohibited it. As for something known and guaranteed, there is no harm in it. Malik b. Anas b. Malik agreed with him in its chain of narration but differed in its wording.
