Hadith #45031
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ وَرْدَانَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ، يَخْطُبُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ كُنْتُ أَبْتَاعُ التَّمْرَ مِنْ بَطْنٍ مِنْ الْيَهُودِ يُقَالُ لَهُمْ بَنُو قَيْنُقَاعٍ فَأَبِيعُهُ بِرِبْحِ الْآصُعِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا عُثْمَانُ إِذَا اشْتَرَيْتَ فَاكْتَلْ وَإِذَا بِعْتَ فَكِلْ.
Abu Sa’id told us, Ibn Lahi’ah told us, Musa bin Wardan told us, he said, I heard Sa’id bin Al-Musayyab, saying, I heard Uthman, giving a sermon to Al-Minbar, and he said, “I used to buy dates from some of the Jews, called Banu Qaynuqa’, and I would sell them for a profit of as much as the amount.” That is the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and he said, O Uthman, if you buy, then eat, and if you sell, then eat.
