أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ قَالَ
كُنَّا نُرْزَقُ تَمْرَ الْجَمْعِ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَنَبِيعُ الصَّاعَيْنِ بِالصَّاعِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «لَا صَاعَيْ تَمْرٍ بِصَاعٍ وَلَا صَاعَيْ حِنْطَةٍ بِصَاعٍ وَلَا دِرْهَمًا بِدِرْهَمَيْنِ»

✧ We used to be given mixed dates as provisions in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and we would sell two sa's for one sa'. That reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said: "No two sa's of dates for one sa', nor two sa's of wheat for one sa', nor a dirham for two dirhams."
