It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that we used to give land on sharecropping and did not consider there to be any harm in it. Later, Hazrat Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) informed us that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) forbade this, so we abandoned it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi' (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Offer the morning prayer in brightness, for its reward is greater."

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. I asked,“What if it is for gold and silver?”He replied,“No.”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not approve of leasing land in exchange for its produce, but there is no harm in leasing it for dirhams and dinars.

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi' (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The earnings of the cupper are impure, the earnings of a prostitute are impure, and the price of a dog is impure.

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi' (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The hand will not be cut off for stealing fruit or buds.

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I submitted in the presence of the Messenger of Allah, O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) Tomorrow we will face our enemy (animals), while we do not have any knife? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whatever thing, besides teeth and nails, causes the animal’s blood to flow and Allah’s name is mentioned over it, you may eat it. And let me tell you the reason: teeth are bone and nails are the knives of the Abyssinians. During this time, some camels were received as spoils of war, among which one camel ran away. People tried very hard to control it but could not succeed. Finally, a man aimed and shot an arrow at it and brought it under control. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: These animals also sometimes become wild just as wild animals become furious. When you are overpowered by an animal, do the same with it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sahl bin Abi Hathmah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) forbade selling dates that are still on the trees in exchange for harvested dates, except that he permitted it (in less than five wasqs) for those in need.

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I submitted in the presence of the Messenger of Allah, O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) We were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at Dhul-Hulaifah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) received some goats and camels as spoils of war. People quickly put pots on the fire. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came and ordered the pots to be overturned. Then he said,“One camel is equivalent to ten goats.”Among those camels, one camel ran away. People tried very hard to catch it but could not succeed. Finally, out of frustration, a man aimed and shot an arrow at it and managed to control it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“These animals also sometimes become wild just as wild animals become furious. When you are overpowered by an animal, do the same with it.”(They asked)“Tomorrow we may face our enemy (among the animals), and we do not have any knife with us?”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“Other than teeth and nails, whatever causes the animal’s blood to flow and Allah’s name is mentioned over it, you may eat it. And let me also tell you the reason: teeth are bone, and nails are the knives of the Abyssinians.”

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade hufl. The narrator asked,“What is meant by hufl?”He replied,“To give land on sharecropping for a third or a fourth of the produce.”Upon hearing this hadith, Ibrahim also gave a verdict regarding its dislike, and did not consider it objectionable to take land in exchange for dirhams.

It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that a person submitted in the court of the Messenger, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) Which earning is the best and most excellent?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "The earning from a man's own hand and every accepted trade."
