Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that during the blessed era of the Prophet (ﷺ), we used to give land on sharecropping for one-third, one-fourth, or a fixed portion of the crop as rent. But one day, one of my uncles came to me and said that the Prophet (ﷺ) has forbidden us from an act that was beneficial for us, but obedience to Allah and His Messenger is more beneficial. The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade us from giving land on sharecropping and from renting it out for one-third, one-fourth, or a fixed portion of the crop, and he instructed the owner of the land to either cultivate it himself or permit someone else to do so, but he disliked rent and other such arrangements. Qatadah says that his uncle was Zuhair (may Allah be pleased with him).
