Hazrat Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that on the occasion of a battle, he was coming riding on his camel, which had become exhausted. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by and struck the camel and prayed for it. As a result, the camel began to move with such speed as it had never done before. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Sell it to me for one uqiyah." I refused, but upon his insistence, I sold it to him, with the condition that I could ride it until I reached my home. When we reached Madinah, I presented the camel to him, and he paid its price as well. But when I was about to leave, he sent someone after me to call me back. When I came, he said, "I had not really intended to take your camel; take your camel, it is your property, and I have not taken back the price."

Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that I participated in a battle (the Battle of Tabuk) with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came up to me from behind. I was riding a camel that carried water. Since it was tired, it was walking slowly. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me, "Jabir! What has happened to your camel?" I replied, "It has become tired." Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went behind, prodded it, and prayed for it. After that, it kept walking ahead of the other camels. Then he asked, "What do you think about your camel now?" I said, "Now it is good; it has become so because of your blessing." He said, "Then will you sell it?" He narrated, "I felt embarrassed because we had no other camel to bring water except this one. But I said, 'Yes!'" He said, "Then sell it." So I sold that camel to him, and it was agreed that I would ride it until we reached Madinah. He narrated, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah! My marriage is recent.' I sought permission from you (to go ahead to my home), so you granted me permission. Therefore, I reached Madinah before everyone else. When I met my maternal uncles, they asked me about the camel. I informed them of the transaction I had made, and they reproached me (saying, 'You had only one camel, and you sold it too; now how will you bring water?'). When I had sought permission from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he had asked me, 'Did you marry a virgin or a widow?' I replied, 'A widow.' Upon this, he said, 'Why not a virgin, so that she could play with you and you with her?' (Because Hazrat Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) was also unmarried at that time.) I said, 'O Messenger of Allah! My father has passed away, or (he said) he was martyred (in Uhud), and I have small sisters. So I did not think it appropriate to bring a girl like them, who could neither teach them manners nor look after them. That is why I married a widow so that she could look after them and teach them manners.' He narrated, 'Then when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached Madinah, I came to him in the morning on that same camel. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave me the price of the camel and then returned the camel to me as well.'"

Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) bought a camel from me for two uqiyah and one dirham, or (the narrator is in doubt) two uqiyah and two dirhams. When he reached the place of Sarar, he ordered a cow to be slaughtered and the people ate its meat. Then when he reached Madinah, he ordered me to first go to the mosque and offer two rak'ahs of prayer, and after that, he had the price of my camel weighed and given to me.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that a man came to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) to demand repayment of his debt and spoke harshly. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) became angry and moved towards him, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Leave him, for the one who has a right over someone also has the right to speak." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Give him an animal of the same age as the one owed to him." The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said, "O Messenger of Allah! Only an animal older than that is available (but not of the same age)." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Give him that one, for the best person is the one who pays the rights of others in full."

Narrated Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her): The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) bought some grain from a Jew on credit for a fixed period and mortgaged his iron armor with him.

Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to Madinah, people used to conduct Salam transactions in dates for two or three years. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed them that whoever wants to conduct a Salam sale should specify a fixed weight and a fixed period.

Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that I myself heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: (When selling goods, the shopkeeper's) swearing an oath makes the goods sell quickly, but that oath destroys the blessing.

Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) granted the right of pre-emption in everything that had not yet been divided, but when boundaries were set and the paths were separated, then the right of pre-emption no longer remained.

Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No person should prevent his neighbor from fixing a peg in his wall. Then Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: What is this matter that I find you turning away from it? By Allah! I will continue to proclaim this hadith before you.

Hazrat Saeed bin Zaid bin Amr bin Nufail (may Allah be pleased with him) had a dispute with Arwa bint Abi Aws regarding a (piece of) land. Arwa claimed that Saeed had seized her land. This case went to Marwan, the governor of Madinah, for judgment. Saeed (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Would I usurp her right? I bear witness that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever unjustly seizes even a handspan of land, a collar of seven earths will be placed around his neck on the Day of Resurrection."
