Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever buys grain should not sell it until he measures it." I said to Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): Why? He said: Do you not see that they used to sell it for gold coins while there was only hope of the grain arriving?

Narrated by Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the sale of anything before taking possession of it, and that is only regarding grain. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: I consider everything to be in the same position as grain.
