"عَنْ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُ خَطَبَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّكُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّا لَا نَعْلَمُ أَبْوَابَ الرِّبَا، وَلأَنْ أَكُونَ أَعْلَمُهَا أحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِى مِثْلُ مِصْرَ وَكُورهَا، وَإِنَّ مِنْهُ أَبْوَابًا لَا تَخْفَى عَلَى أَحَدٍ، مِنْهَا (السَّلَمُ فِى السن) وَأَنْ تُبَاعَ الَثَّمَرَةُ وَهِى (مُضَعَّفَةٌ) لَمَّا تَطِبْ، وَأَنْ يُبَاعَ الْوَرِقُ بِالذَّهَبِ نَسئًا".

"'Umar delivered a sermon and said: "You claim that we do not know the doors of usury. Indeed, for me to know them is dearer to me than to have the like of Egypt and its districts. There are doors of it that are not hidden from anyone: among them (salam in the teeth/ 'salam fi al-sinn'), selling dates while they are (still green and) not yet ripe, and selling silver for gold on credit."
