حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: " قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ الْأَرْضَ، كَانَتْ تُكْرَى عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، بِمَا عَلَى الْأَرْبِعَاءِ (١) وَشَيْءٍ مِنَ التِّبْنِ، لَا أَدْرِي، ، كَمْ هُوَ "، وَإِنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ كَانَ يُكْرِي أَرْضَهُ فِي عَهْدِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَعَهْدِ عُمَرَ، وَعَهْدِ عُثْمَانَ، وَصَدْرِ إِمَارَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ فِي آخِرِهَا بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ رَافِعًا يُحَدِّثُ فِي ذَلِكَ بِنَهْيِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَتَاهُ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ (١) عَنْ كِرَاءِ (٢) الْمَزَارِعِ " فَتَرَكَهَا ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَكَانَ لَا يُكْرِيهَا فَكَانَ إِذَا سُئِلَ يَقُولُ زَعَمَ ابْنُ خَدِيجٍ: " أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، نَهَى عَنْ كِرَاءِ الْمَزَارِعِ " (٣)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that I know that in the blessed era of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), land used to be given on rent in exchange for grass and a small amount of straw, the exact amount of which I do not remember. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) himself used to give land on rent during the eras of Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and in the early period of the rule of Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him). However, in the later period of Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), he came to know that Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates the prohibition of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) regarding giving land on rent. So he went to him, and I was with him. He asked Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) about this matter, and he replied: Yes! The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) forbade giving land on rent. Upon hearing this, Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) abandoned this practice and thereafter never gave land on rent to anyone. And when someone would ask him, he would say that Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) holds the opinion that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) forbade giving land on rent.
