Chain of Narration (Isnad)

Narrated by Rafi' bin Khadij bin Rafi' 4 narrators

مالك بن إسماعيل أبو غسان النهدي Atbāʿ al-Tābiʿīn d. 217 AH Sufyan bin 'Uyaynah Atbāʿ al-Tābiʿīn 107 AH – 196 AH Yahya bin Sa'id al-Ansari Tābiʿī <70 AH – 144 AH or after Rafi' bin Khadij bin Rafi' Companion d. ~73 AH

Narrated Rafi` bin Khadij:We used to work on the fields more than the other Ansar, and we used to rent the land (for the yield of a specific portion of it). But sometimes that portion or the rest of the land did not give any yield, so we were forbidden (by the Prophet (ﷺ) ) to follow such a system, but we were allowed to rent the land for money.

حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ حَنْظَلَةَ الزُّرَقِيَّ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَافِعَ بْنَ خَدِيجٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ كُنَّا أَكْثَرَ الأَنْصَارِ حَقْلاً، فَكُنَّا نُكْرِي الأَرْضَ، فَرُبَّمَا أَخْرَجَتْ هَذِهِ وَلَمْ تُخْرِجْ ذِهِ، فَنُهِينَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، وَلَمْ نُنْهَ عَنِ الْوَرِقِ‏.‏
