Narrated Ubadah ibn as-Samit: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Gold is to be paid for with gold, raw and coined, silver with silver, raw and coined (in equal weight), wheat with wheat in equal measure, barley with barley in equal measure, dates with dates in equal measure, salt by salt with equal measure; if anyone gives more or asks more, he has dealt in usury. But there is no harm in selling gold for silver and silver (for gold), in unequal weight, payment being made on the spot. Do not sell them if they are to be paid for later. There is no harm in selling wheat for barley and barley (for wheat) in unequal measure, payment being made on the spot. If the payment is to be made later, then do not sell them. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been transmitted by Saeed bin Abi 'Arubah, Hisham al-Dastawa'i and Qatadah from Muslim bin Yasar through his chain.

Narrated Umar: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم as saying: Gold for gold is interest unless both hand over on the spot ; wheat for wheat is interest unless both hand over on the spot ; dates for dates is interest unless both hand over on the spot ; barley for barley is interest unless both hand over on the spot.

Narrated Fudalah bin Ubaid: We were with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم at the battle of Khaibar. We were selling to the Jews one uqiyah of gold for one dinar. The narrators other than Qutaibah said: "for two or three dinars. " Then both the versions agreed. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Do not sell gold except with equal weight.
