Tafseer Surah al-Baqarah Part 20

Aoozu Billahi as-Samee al-Aleemi minash Shaitanir Rajeem

Bismillah,…, Alhamdulillahi wahdah was salaatu was salaamu ala man la nabiya ba’adah

Rabbish sharah li sadri wa yassirli amri wahlul uqdatam min lisaani yafqahu qauli

As Salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

Pichle hafte Eid-ul-Fitr ki chuttiyon ki wajah se dars nahi ho paya, uss se pehle ke dars me hum Surah al-Baqarah ki 10wi ayat ki tafseer sunn rahe the, aur aaj ke dars me hum Lafz-e-Kazb ke mutalliq chand cheezen analyze karenge aur Surah al-Baqarah ki 11wi ayat ki tafseer ka pehla hissa sunenge, iss ayat me samjhane ka bohot hai. To iss ayat ki tafseer 2 sessions me hogi.

Tarjuma wa Tafseer

To, Pichle dars me humne Lafz-e-Kazb ke maano me kaha tha ke, iss me teen maane hain:

  • Jhoot,
  • Jhutla dena,
  • Jhoot bandhna ya Jhoot gadhna.
  • Ye teen maane zehan me rakhiye, agay jo analysis aa raha hai uss ko samajhne ke liye,
  • Phir Quran ki ayaat me humne dekha ke, jhoot tamam buraiyyon se wabasta hai.

Aur phir humne ek hadith par focus kiya tha, jiss me,

  • Farmaya Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne ke, Banda musalsal jhoot bolta rehta hai, aur uss ke dil me ek kala dhabba badhta chala jata hai yahan tak ke uss ka sara dil kala ho jata hai, phir Allah ki nazar me wo jhoot bolne walon me likh diya jata hai.[1]
  • Ye hadith bhi yaad rakhiye, iss hadith se aaj ki latest scientific research ko correlate karna hai.

Phir humne kaha ke, Lafz-e-Maraz ke maane jo ahadith me aye hain, wo saari jismani bimariyon ke liye hi istemaal huwa hai,

  • Lekin yahan iss ayat me – dil-o-dimagh ki bimari ki baat ho rahi hai, to kya ye bimari bhi, abstract bimari hai ya iss jhoot bolne ki wajah se, jo dil par asar parrhta hai, kya koi physical change dil-o-dimagh par ho raha hai ya nahi? Iss ko analyse karna hai.
  • Ya wo bhi sirf asbtract hai, sirf gunahon me izafa ho raha hai?
  • Ek baat to tay hai ke, Gunahon ki wajah se jo Azaab hoga, wo abstract nahi hai, wo to physcial Azaab hoga,
  • Jahannam me jab jalenge to insaan ka skin jalega, aur uss jalne ke ehsaas ko barqarar rakhne ke liye naya skin dala jayega, aur ye process continuously chalta rahega, jaisa Quran me zikr aya hai.

Scientific Analysis of Ahadith on Lying

Psychology ke experts kehte hain ke,

  • US News ke August 2012 ke ek article me aya hai ke, Ek jhoot bolne ke liye, time lagta hai, planning, execution aur maintenance ye sab hote hain. Matlab, jhoot bolne ke baad, uss ko sambhaalna bhi padta. Iss ki wajah se, insaan ke zehan par stress parrhta hai aur dimagh stress hormones release karta hai aur heart rate increase ho jaati, dil tezi se dhadakne lagta hai, sirf ek jhoot bolne se.
  • Aur uss ke bar-aks agar banda sach bolay to, ek study ke mutabiq, insaan halka mehsoos karta aur jo bimariyan hai uss stress ki wajah se, unn me kami hoti hai.[2]
  • Berkeley University ki ek manuscript jo publication ke liye accept huwi, uss ke mutabiq, jhoot bolne aur be-imani karne se,
    • dimagh ke jo executive control areas hain, jiss ki wajah se memory ya yaad-dasht, attention ya tawajjoh, decision making ya faisla karne ki quwwat, waghairah par asar hota hai,
    • jhoot aur be-imani se blood pressure aur heart rate badh jati hai, aur ye insaan ki sehat par asar karte hain.[3]
  • Frontiers ke naam se ek website hai, jis par kayee universitiyon ki research ko analyse kiya gaya aur ek report publish ki gayi, jiss me ye paya gaya ke, jhoot bolne ke teen tareeqe hain;
    • Quran me bhi Kazb ke teen maane aye hain, ye koi coincidence nahi hai, sonch kar dekhiye,
    • Pehla, False denials, jhoot bol kar inkaar karna ya jhooti tardeed karna – iss me kuch tests conduct kiye gaye, jiss ka nateeja ye tha ke ye, confirm ho gaya ke, urdu ka muhawra sahih hai, jhoote ko hafiza nahi hota. Wo kis ko kya jhoot bola yaad nahi hota aur yehi paya gaya, jhutlane ki wajah se asal haq kya hai, wo bhool gaye, sirf jhoot hi yaad ho gaya.
    • Doosra, Bhoolne ki bimari ka bahana karna, iss test me bhi logon ko yaad nahi raha ke, asliyat aakhir kya thi. Aur kitna jhoot bola gaya uss ke hisaab se memory par ya yaad-dasht par utna hi asar hota paya gaya.
      • Ab yahan, wo hadith ko yaad kariye, dil abhi poora kala nahi huwa, to insaan kuch kuch sach bol raha hai, to uss ke hisaab se utni hi yaad-dasht kho rahi hai.
    • Teesra, jhoot gadhna, iss test me bhi, 15% jo log jhoot gadhe the, unhe wohi yaad hai, asal haqeeqat yaad nahi.[4]
      • Phir wo hadith par ghaur kariye, ye 15% wo log hain, jin ke dil kaale ho gaye, unn ki memory poori tarah jhoot ki aadi ho gayee, aur ye Allah ke saamne jhoot bolne walon me shumaar ho gaye hain, iss liye unhe jhoot ke alawa kuch yaad nahi, sach bilkul yaad nahi,
      • Baaqi log, kisi ko kuch sach yaad hai, aur kisi ko kuch jhoot yaad hai, aisa lagta hai ke, aise logon ke dil poore kaale nahi huwe.
      • Ye kayi controlled studies ka result hai, aur iss par mazeed research ki maang ho rahi hai.
    • Ek Muttafiqun alaih hadith me Abdullah ibn Masud (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْه) ne, Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ko kehte suna ke, sach bola karo, sachai nek amal ki taraf le jaati hai, aur nek amal jannat ki taraf le jaata hai.
      • Aur farmaya ke, jhoot bolne se bacho, jhoot corruption ki taraf ya be-hayayi ya buray amaal ki taraf le jaata hai, aur buray amaal jahannam ki aag ki taraf le jaate hain…[5]
    • Kayi Muttafiqun alaih ahadith ko jama kiya hai, Farmaya Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne ke, ek munafiq ki 4 nishaniyan hain;
      • Zara hum apne baare me sonche inn chaar qualities ko sunte waqt ke, kahin ye hum me to nahi,
      • Jab wo bolta hai to, jhoot bolta hai,
      • Jab bhi wo koi wada karta hai, to wada khilafi karta hai,
      • Jab uss par bharosa kiya jata hai, to wo bharose ko todh deta hai,
      • Jab wo behas karta hai ya jhagda karta hai to, wo gaali deta hai,
      • Phir aap (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne farmaya ke, agar wo Roza bhi rakhta hai, aur Namaz bhi parrhta hai aur kehta hai ke main musalmaan hoon.[6]
      • To matlab kya nikal raha hai, Munafiqeen jo hain, wo Musalmaano ke huliye me huwa karte the, aur aaj ye khusoosiyaat hum musalmaano me payee jaati hain.
      • Allah hume aisa bannay se bachay, ameen.
    • Ek khaas baat yahan note karne ki ye hai ke, Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ke zamane me, munafiqeen jo the, wo musalmaano ke bhes me huwa karte the, aur wo ‘Ya Ayyuhal lazeena aamanu’, Yani “Aye wo logo jo claim karte ho ke, iman laye ho”, wali category me huwa karte the.
      • To aaj ye sab kuch hume kyun sunaya ja raha hai?
      • Mujhe kya karna hai?
      • Inn tamam baton se ye, pata chal raha hai ke, Munafiq ke qualities agar hum me hain, to unn se bachne ke upaye humne karna hai,
      • Warna hum samajh rahe hain ke hum Musalman hain, aur Allah ke saamne hum Munafiqon me, jhooton me shamil kiye ja rahe hon, to phir mas’la ho jayega,
      • Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) hume Momino me rakhe, Mushrikon, Kafiron aur Munafiqon me nahi, ameen.
    • Tirmidhi ki ek hadith me, Aisha (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْهَا) farmati hain ke, Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) jhoot se bohot nafrat karte the, agar kisi ne, aap (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ke saamne, koi cheez bayan karne me jhoot bola, to aap (صلى الله عليه وسلم) uss waqt tak bechain rehte, jab tak ke, ye maloom na ho jaye ke, uss shakhs ne tauba kar li hai.[7]
    • Jadeed tareen research ke mutabiq, logon ke ek group se kaha gaya ke, 10 hafton tak jhoot bolna chhorrh do, aur doosre group se kaha gaya ke, jaise aam taur par rehte ho waise raho.
      • Jin logon ko jhoot bolne se mana kiya gaya tha, 10 hafte baad unki;
        • mental health behtar ho gayee,
        • tension aur udaasi me kami,
        • jismani bimariyon me bhi kami dekhi gayee, jaise soar throat ya gale me kharash, sar dard waghairah me bhi kami huwi.
        • Unke taloqaat apne ghar walon aur doston se behtar ho gaye aur wo aam taur par behtar mehsoos kar rahe the.
      • To aaj science ki tehqeeq ke mutabiq, sach bolna sehat ke liye acha hai.[8]
      • Yahan abhi jo ahadith hum sunay, unn se compare karte chale jaiyye, aap (صلى الله عليه وسلم), 1450 – saaday chauda sau (1450) saal pehle hukum kar diye the ke, sachai neki ki taraf le jaati hai, aur neki jannat ki taraf.
      • Agar banda iss raah par chal raha hai to, beshak wo sukoon, shanti, peace ki kaifiyat mehsoos karega, kyun ke, Surah al-Maidah ki 69wi ayat me farmaya ke, “Jo log Allah par aur qiyamat ke din par iman laye, aur nek amal karte rahe, to unn par na to koi khauf hoga aur na koi gham”[9]
    • University College London aur Duke University ki research me, ye maloom karne ki koshish ki gayee ke, dimagh me aakhir hota kya hai, jab hum jhoot bolte hain ya dhoka dete hain, to iss ka asar hamare dimagh par kaisa parrhta;
      • Khaas taur par, wo ye jaanna chahte the ke, kya jhoot bolte bolte ya be-imani karte karte, dimagh be-hiss ho jata ya jhoot bolna asaan ho jata?
      • Logon ke ek group ko ek sheeshe ke bartan me rakhe sikkon ka andaaza lagana tha, aur apne saathi ko jo uss bartan ko nahi dekh raha hai, ye batana tha ke, uss bartan me kitne sikkay hain, aur wo jitni tedaad bolenge, utne paise unhe milenge.
      • To shuru me ye paya gaya ke, jo doosra partner hai, jo sikkon ke bartan ko nahi dekh raha hai, wo apne saathi ki tedad se thoda badh kar sikkon ki tedad bata raha tha, takay uss ko zyada faida ho,
      • Aur jaise jaise ye experiment dohraya gaya, sikkon ki tedad me farq badhta chala gaya, yani shuru me thoda jhoot bolne lagay, aur phir waqt ke saath saath, doosra partner tedad badhata chala gaya aur ye experiment ke end me, dono partner ki tedad me dugna farq report kiya gaya.
      • Yehi experiment ko phir se dohraya gaya lekin iss baar, jo participants the unn ke dimagh ka fMRI kiya ja raha tha, unn ke dimaghon ko scan kiya ja raha tha, ye dekhne ke liye ke, jhoot bolne ka asar dimagh par kaise ho raha hai,
      • Experiment ke shuru me, dimagh ke unn hisson me bohot zyada activity dikhayi di, jo jazbaat se wabasta hain, khaas taur par amygdala me. Iss observation se ye pata chalta hai ke, shuru me thoda jhoot log bol rahe the, lekin wo bohot bura mehsoos kar rahe the, jhoot bolne ki wajah se.
      • Lekin waqt guzarne ke saath, jaisa wo baar baar jhoot bol rahe the, unn ke dimagh ke wohi hisse, jo pehle bohot zyada activity dikha rahe the, wo ab kum activity dikha rahe the, aur ye activity waqt ke saath kum se kum hoti chali gayi.
      • Iss ka matlab ye hai ke, ye jo amygdala wala jo hissa hai, wo jhoot ka aadi ho gaya tha aur jo dil me wo burai mehsoos kar rahe the, wo khatam ho gayi.
      • Ab yahan wo hadith se compare karte chale jaiyye, kala dhabba badhta chala gaya jab tak ke wo shakhs Allah ke saamne jhooton me shamil ho gaya.
    • Ek aur tafseeli research jo qalb par ya dil par ki gayee, uss me ye paya gaya ke, dil me 40 hazar aise cells hain, jo dimagh me paye jaate hain, aur dil ke andar ek chhota sa dimagh ki tarah ka kaam ho raha hai, aur wo dimagh se kisi qadar independtly kaam karta hai, aur wo cheezen seekhne, yaad rakhne aur mehsoos karne aur ehsaas ke qabil hai, dimagh ke alawa.
      • Aur tehqeeq se ye pata chala ke, dil se neurological signals amgydala par asar karte hain jo ke, dimagh ka aisa hissa hai, jo insaan ke atraaf khatre ke mahol ko mehsoos karta hai, aur fauran defense mechanism ko activate karta hai aur emotional responses ke liye bhi zimmadar hai.[10]
      • Dil-o-Dimagh ka aisa connection hai ke, jhoot bolne se mutassir ho jata hai, aur insaan musalsal stress ki kiafiyat me hota hai.

To inn tamam cheezon se ye pata chala ke, jhoot bolne ki wajah se na sirf insaan ke dil-o-dimagh par asar hota hai, balke, physically bhi insaan bimariyon me mubtala ho jata hai. To Lafz-e-Kazb me ye tamam cheezen hain.

To ab iss ke aagay badhte hain, aur Surah al-Baqarah ki 11wi ayat ko samajhte hain,

Vs. No. 11

وَاِذَا قِيۡلَ لَهُمۡ لَا تُفۡسِدُوۡا فِىۡ الۡاَرۡضِۙ قَالُوۡاۤ اِنَّمَا نَحۡنُ مُصۡلِحُوۡنَ‏

Aur jab inn se kaha jaata hai ke zameen me fasaad mat phailao, to wo kehte hain, hum to islaah karne wale hain.

Ye ayat aaj ke halat ke hisaab se bilkul mauzoo hai, iss ki tafseel me jaane se pehle, Iss ayat me samajhne wale 3 alfaaz hain, pehle unn par ghaur karte hain,

  • Tufsidu,
  • al-Arz aur

To aaj ka pehla lafz aur Surah al-Fatiha se parrhne ki tarteeb ka 51wa lafz, Tufsidu hai.

51. TUFSIDU ( You cause corruption ) 2:11 ( تُفْسِدُوا ( ف س د

Lafz-e-Tufsidu ka root ya maddah (ف س د) hai, jis ka matlab Tum fasaad phailaate ho ke hain. Ye lafz Quran me jin maano ke liye istemaal huwa hai wo hain;

  • Corruption, bigaad ya kharabi,[11]
  • Disorder ya inteshaar,[12]
  • Corruption jaisa Quran me aya hai, uss me,
    • Allah ke ehkamat se inkaar karna, na-insaafi, zulm, ghuroor aur sarkashi ke saath,[13]
    • Logon ko Allah ke raaste se rokna, aur uss me tedhapan dhoondna ya tedha karne ki koshish karna,[14]
    • Zameen me logon ko alag alag girohon me, groups me taqseem kar dena, ek giroh ko daba kar rakhna aur unn me se masoom logon ka qatl kar dena,[15]
    • Naap aur Tol me kami karke, logon ko unn ka haq na dena bhi Fasad hai, corruption hai.[16]
    • Homosexuality, same sex marriages, LGBTQ+, dacoity, yani raaste par musafiron ko lootna, aur aisi majlisein qayem karne jis me gunah ke kaam hote hain,[17]
    • Kheti ko aur janwaron ko tabah karna,[18]
    • Allah ke Rasoolon ka qatl karna,[19]
  • Corruption ya fasaad wabasta hota hai;
    • Blood shed ya Khoon rezi karne se,[20]
    • Badshah jab kisi mulk ko fatah karte hain to fasad barpa karte hain, tabah kar dete hain,[21] to uss tabahi se wabasta hai,
    • Baghawat se,[22]
    • Ghuroor se,[23]
    • Kufr se,[24]
    • Jaadu se,[25]
    • Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) ke sath mu’aheda todhne se, aur Allah ke ahkamaat ko todhne se,[26]
  • Aur aaj ke halat jo duniya me hain, uss ki wajah iss Surah al-Anfal ki 73wi ayat me bayan ki ja rahi hai ke,…agar momineen ek doosre ka support nahi karenge, to zameen me fitna phailega aur fasad hoga, kharabi hogi, corruption hoga.[27]
  • Aur aaj kya ho raha hai,
    • Duniya me corruption phail gaya ke nahi?
    • Allah ke ahkamaat ko to toda ja raha hai ke nahi?
    • Riba, mitti, sood, vatti, bank interest, byaj, usury phail gayee hai ke nahi?
    • Logon ko Allah ke raaste se roka ja raha hai ke nahi?
    • Quran ko jalaya ja raha hai ke nahi?
    • Logon ko alag alag groups me bata ja raha hai ke nahi?
    • White supremacy, Hindu Supremacy, Right wing, Far Right Party, ye alfaz news me aa rahe hain ke nahi?
    • Naap tol me kami rahi hai ke nahi?
    • Same sex marriages ho rahe hain ke nahi?
    • Kya musalmaan ek jutt ho kar inn cheezon ke khilaf khade ho rahe hain ke nahi?
    • Ye hum me se har ek, khud sonch lein…
  • Phir Surah al-Baqarah ki 251wi ayat me farmaya ke, Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) logon ke ek group ko doosre group se hatata na rehta, ya defend na karta to zameen me fasad, kharabi, corruption phail jata.[28]
    • Sonch kar dekhiye, ye ladai jhagde, kyun hote hain?
    • Yahan insaan ki psychology bayan ki ja rahi hai,
    • Jab kabhi bhi, jung hoti hai ya koi ladai jhagda hota hai, ya koi riot hoti hai, to kya hota?
    • Log Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) ki taraf palat’te hain,
    • Lekin agar logon ko jo chahe karne diya jaye, to taqatwar log kamzor ko exploit karte hain, unn ki takkar ka koi aur force na hoga to wo, be-khauf ho kar inteshaar phailayenge, corruption karenge.
  • Ab iss ayat me shirk ki kamar todi ja rahi hai ke, agar iss kayenaat me ek se badh kar aur ilaha hote, ek se badh kar aur khuda hote, to iss kayenaat me disorder hota, inteshaar hota yani ke fasaad hota.[29]
  • Khushki aur tari me, yani land and sea me, logon ke amal ki wajah se fasad phail gaya hai, takay Allah unn ko, unke hi amaal ka maza chakhaye, takay wo Allah ki taraf laut aye.[30]
  • Aur hum Musalmano ko hukum huwa hai ke, hum fasad, corruption na phailaye,[31]
  • Kyun?
  • Kyun ke, Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) corruption phailane walon ko pasand nahi karte,[32] aur aise logon ke liye qiyamat ke din, azaab par azab me izafa karenge.[33]
  • Aur jo log Allah aur uss ke Rasool ke khilaaf jung karte hain aur zameen me fasad, inteshar ya corruption phailane ki sakht koshish karte hain, unn ke liye iss duniya me saza ye hai ke, unn ka qatl kar diya jaye, ya unhe saleb par chad’ha diya jaye, ya unke hath aur pair, opposite side se, khilaaf se kaat diye jaye ya unhe mulk se nikaal diya jaye, exile kar diya jaye.[34]
  • Aur Fasad ka, Corruption ya Disorder ka opposite kya hai?
    • Islaah hai, Reform hai,[35]
    • Imaan aur Amal-e-Saleh hai.[36]

Lafz-e-Fasad par jo ahadith ayee hain, wo hain;

  • Tirmidhi ki ek hadith, Farmaya Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne ke, agar koi shaks jis ke deen aur akhlaq se tum mutma’een ho, satisfied ho, aur wo tumhari beti ka haath nikaah me maange, to uss ki darkhast maan lo, warna zameen me fitna aur fasad phail jayega.[37]
    • Matlab ye hai ke, apni aulaad ki shadi, deen dekh kar ki jaye, na ke, naam, nasab, waghairah dekh kar.
    • Kya hum aisa kar rahe hain?
    • Apne apne families ka jaiza lein, aur zameen me fasad ko phailne se roke.
    • To ye zimmadari kis ki huwi?
  • Abu Dawood, Nasa’i aur Muwatta Imam Malik me hai, Farmaya Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne ke, Ghazwa do qism ka hota hai,
    • Ek wo jo Allah ko razi karne ke liye ho, jis me fauji apne ameer ki baat maante hain, aur apna maal khushi se Allah ki raah me kharch karte hain, aur apne saathiyon se narmi se pesh aatay hain aur koi shararat nahi karte, corruption nahi karte, inteshaar nahi phailate, to aisay ghazwe me, achai hi achai hai, aur iss me hissa lene walay sawab kamate rehte hain, chahe wo jage ya soye.
    • Lekin, doosra Ghazwa wo hai, jis me logon ko dikhane ke liye lada jaye, ya apni badhai ke liye lada jaye, aur ameer ki baat na maane, aur zameen me inteshaar phailaye, to aisa Ghazway me koi faida nahi hoga.[38]
    • Inteshaar phailaye ya corruption kare, yani beja logon ka qatl kare aur unn cheezon ko nuqsan pahunchaye, jiss se Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne mana kiya ho, ye doosre ahadith me iss ka zikr aya hai.
  • Fasad ke maane, ahadith me kisi cheez ke kharab hone ke aye hain,
    • Abu Dawood ki ek hadith me, Ibn Abbas (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْه) farmate hain ke, Kishmish se Nabiz banaya gaya, aap (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ke liye, jisay aap ne do din aur do raat tak piya, phir uss ke baad aap ne hukum diya ke khadimo ko de diya jaye ya baha diya jaye.[39]
      • Khadimo ko de diya jaye matlab, agar nabiz abhi peene ke qabil hai to baat diya jaye, kyun ke, andesha tha ke aur waqt guzrega to wo kharab ho jayega,
      • Aur agar kharab ho gaya ho to, baha diya jaye, yani wo ab istemaal ke qabil nahi raha.
      • Nabiz kya hota?
      • ½ liter Pani me 12-15 khajoor ya ussi meqdaar me kishmish raat ko bhigaya jata aur din me pi liya jata,
      • Iss hadith me zikr hai ke, kharab hone se pehle tak pi sakte hain, jahan do din aur do raat ka time bataya gaya,
      • Doosre aur bhi ahadith hain, Nabiz par, wahan kayee cheezon ki mumaniyat ayee hai, jis me agar Nabiz se bulbule nikalna shuru ho gaye hain, bubbles nikal rahe hain, to usay peene ki mumaniyat hai, kyun ke, wo phir sadh kar sharab banna shuru ho jaati hai, aur wo peena haram hai.
      • To wo container jis me nabiz banayi jaa rahi hai, uss par depend karta hai, ke kitni jaldi ya der se, uss me sharab banna shuru ho gayee, uss ke indications ahadith me aye hain,
      • Aur issi nabiz se hi, sirka banta hai, lekin jo bartan hai, ya jo container hai, uss ka mooh, bada hona chahiye aur uss ko 3 mahine tak chhorrh diya jata hai, takay wo acetic acid yani sirka ban jaye.
      • To ye nabiz kharab hone ke liye, lafz-e-fasad aya hai, ke ab nabiz kharab ho gayi aur peene ke qabil nahi rahi.
    • Musnad Ahmed ki ek lambi hadith me, jo Muttafiqun Alaih hadith bhi hai, uss me Umar (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْه) ka khutba recorded hai, jis me unhone ne lafz-e-fasad istemaal kiya, uss inteshaar ya uss ummat ki kharabi ke liye jo barpa hoti, agar Abu Bakr (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْه) ko pehla khalifa nahi banaya jata.[40]
    • Sunan Abu Dawood ki iss hadith me, auraton me abnormal periods ke liye lafz-e-fasada istemal huwa hai.[41]
    • Sunan Ibn Majah ki iss hadith me, bure amaal ke liye lafz-e-fasada istemaal huwa hai.[42]
    • Iss Muttafiqun Alaih hadith me, dil ki kharabi ke liye lafz-e-fasada istemaal huwa hai, farmaya ke, agar dil kharab ho gaya to poora jism kharab ho jata hai.[43]
      • Abhi humne scientific explanation sunay iss par.
    • Tirmidhi ki iss hadith me, Farmaya Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne ke, jab Shaam ke log, (jo Jordan, Syria, Palestine, Lebanon ka ilaqa hai), jab wahan ke log corrupt ho jayenge, to phir uss me tumhare liye, yani musalmano ke liye, koi bhalai nahi hai…[44]
    • al-Adab al-Mufrad me hai, Rasoolullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne Abu ad-Darda (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْه) se poocha, kya main tumhe, Namaz, Roza aur Sadaqah se ek darja behtar cheez na bata’oon?
      • Kaha gaya: Haan bataiyye,
      • To aap (صلى الله عليه وسلم) ne farmaya ke, dosti ko aur aagay badhana, ya improve karna,
      • Aur dosti me phoot daalna, yahan lafz-e-fasad aya hai, dosti ko kharab kar dena, ya logon me dushmani paida karna uss blade ki tarah hai, jo iman ko kaat deti hai.[45]
      • Ye hadith, Ahmad, Abu Dawood aur Tirmidhi me bhi hai.[46]
    • Muwatta ki ek hadith me, Farmaya Said Ibn al-Musayyab (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْه) ne ke, Sonay aur Chandi ko circulation se bahar rakhna, zameen me fasaad phailana hai.[47]

To ye thay, Quran aur Ahadith lafz-e-fasaad par, yahan aaj ka dars rok denge, next Saturday In Sha Allah Surah al-Baqarah ki tafseer agay sunenge.

[5] Ibn Mas’ud (RAA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Adhere (you people) to truth, for truth leads to good deeds and good deeds lead to Paradise, and if a man continues to speak the truth and makes truth his object he will be recorded as truthful before Allah. Avoid (you people) falsehood, for falsehood leads to wickedness and wickedness leads to Hell, and if a man continues to speak falsehood and makes falsehood his object he will be recorded as a liar before Allah.” Agreed upon.

[6] Abu Hurairah (May Allah bepleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “There are three signs of a hypocrite: When he speaks, he lies; when he makes a promise, he breaks it; and when he is trusted, he betrays his trust.” [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. Another narration adds the words: ‘Even if he observes fasts, performs Salat and asserts that he is a Muslim”.

These are: When he is entrusted with something, he betrays trust; when he speaks, he lies; when he promises, he acts treacherously; and when he argues, he behaves in a very imprudent, insulting manner.” [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

It was narrated from Mu’adh bin Jabal that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Campaigns are of two types. As for the one who seek the Face of Allah, obeys the imam, spends what is precious to him, is easy-going with his companion and avoids mischief, when he is asleep and when he is awake, it will all bring reward. But as for the one who fights to show off, and he disobeys the imam and does mischief in the land, he will not come back the same as when he left.” [It was not simply be the case that he comes back with no good deeds to his credit, rather he will have a number of evil deeds on his record.]

Narrated Mu’adh ibn Jabal: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Fighting is of two kinds: The one who seeks Allah’s favour, obeys the leader, gives the property he values, treats his associates gently and avoids doing mischief, will have the reward for all the time whether he is asleep or awake; but the one who fights in a boasting spirit, for the sake of display and to gain a reputation, who disobeys the leader and does mischief in the earth will not return credit or without blame.

[40] Narrated Ibn `Abbas: I used to teach (the Qur’an to) some people of the Muhajirln (emigrants), among whom there was `Abdur Rahman bin `Auf. While I was in his house at Mina, and he was with `Umar bin Al-Khattab during `Umar’s last Hajj, `Abdur-Rahman came to me and said, “Would that you had seen the man who came today to the Chief of the Believers (`Umar), saying, ‘O Chief of the Believers! What do you think about so-and-so who says, ‘If `Umar should die, I will give the pledge of allegiance to such-andsuch person, as by Allah, the pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr was nothing but a prompt sudden action which got established afterwards.’ `Umar became angry and then said, ‘Allah willing, I will stand before the people tonight and warn them against those people who want to deprive the others of their rights (the question of rulership). `Abdur-Rahman said, “I said, ‘O Chief of the believers! Do not do that, for the season of Hajj gathers the riff-raff and the rubble, and it will be they who will gather around you when you stand to address the people. And I am afraid that you will get up and say something, and some people will spread your statement and may not say what you have actually said and may not understand its meaning, and may interpret it incorrectly, so you should wait till you reach Medina, as it is the place of emigration and the place of Prophet’s Traditions, and there you can come in touch with the learned and noble people, and tell them your ideas with confidence; and the learned people will understand your statement and put it in its proper place.’ On that, `Umar said, ‘By Allah! Allah willing, I will do this in the first speech I will deliver before the people in Medina.” Ibn `Abbas added: We reached Medina by the end of the month of Dhul-Hijja, and when it was Friday, we went quickly (to the mosque) as soon as the sun had declined, and I saw Sa`id bin Zaid bin `Amr bin Nufail sitting at the corner of the pulpit, and I too sat close to him so that my knee was touching his knee, and after a short while `Umar bin Al-Khattab came out, and when I saw him coming towards us, I said to Sa`id bin Zaid bin `Amr bin Nufail “Today `Umar will say such a thing as he has never said since he was chosen as Caliph.” Sa`id denied my statement with astonishment and said, “What thing do you expect `Umar to say the like of which he has never said before?” In the meantime, `Umar sat on the pulpit and when the callmakers for the prayer had finished their call, `Umar stood up, and having glorified and praised Allah as He deserved, he said, “Now then, I am going to tell you something which (Allah) has written for me to say. I do not know; perhaps it portends my death, so whoever understands and remembers it, must narrate it to the others wherever his mount takes him, but if somebody is afraid that he does not understand it, then it is unlawful for him to tell lies about me. Allah sent Muhammad with the Truth and revealed the Holy Book to him, and among what Allah revealed, was the Verse of the Rajam (the stoning of married person (male & female) who commits illegal sexual intercourse, and we did recite this Verse and understood and memorized it. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did carry out the punishment of stoning and so did we after him. I am afraid that after a long time has passed, somebody will say, ‘By Allah, we do not find the Verse of the Rajam in Allah’s Book,’ and thus they will go astray by leaving an obligation which Allah has revealed. And the punishment of the Rajam is to be inflicted to any married person (male & female), who commits illegal sexual intercourse, if the required evidence is available or there is conception or confession. And then we used to recite among the Verses in Allah’s Book: ‘O people! Do not claim to be the offspring of other than your fathers, as it is disbelief (unthankfulness) on your part that you claim to be the offspring of other than your real father.’ Then Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, ‘Do not praise me excessively as Jesus, son of Marry was praised, but call me Allah’s Slave and His Apostles.’ (O people!) I have been informed that a speaker amongst you says, ‘By Allah, if `Umar should die, I will give the pledge of allegiance to such-and-such person.’ One should not deceive oneself by saying that the pledge of allegiance given to Abu Bakr was given suddenly and it was successful. No doubt, it was like that, but Allah saved (the people) from its evil, and there is none among you who has the qualities of Abu Bakr. Remember that whoever gives the pledge of allegiance to anybody among you without consulting the other Muslims, neither that person, nor the person to whom the pledge of allegiance was given, are to be supported, lest they both should be killed. And no doubt after the death of the Prophet (ﷺ) we were informed that the Ansar disagreed with us and gathered in the shed of Bani Sa`da. `Ali and Zubair and whoever was with them, opposed us, while the emigrants gathered with Abu Bakr. I said to Abu Bakr, ‘Let’s go to these Ansari brothers of ours.’ So we set out seeking them, and when we approached them, two pious men of theirs met us and informed us of the final decision of the Ansar, and said, ‘O group of Muhajirin (emigrants) ! Where are you going?’ We replied, ‘We are going to these Ansari brothers of ours.’ They said to us, ‘You shouldn’t go near them. Carry out whatever we have already decided.’ I said, ‘By Allah, we will go to them.’ And so we proceeded until we reached them at the shed of Bani Sa`da. Behold! There was a man sitting amongst them and wrapped in something. I asked, ‘Who is that man?’ They said, ‘He is Sa`d bin ‘Ubada.’ I asked, ‘What is wrong with him?’ They said, ‘He is sick.’ After we sat for a while, the Ansar’s speaker said, ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah,’ and praising Allah as He deserved, he added, ‘To proceed, we are Allah’s Ansar (helpers) and the majority of the Muslim army, while you, the emigrants, are a small group and some people among you came with the intention of preventing us from practicing this matter (of caliphate) and depriving us of it.’ When the speaker had finished, I intended to speak as I had prepared a speech which I liked and which I wanted to deliver in the presence of Abu Bakr, and I used to avoid provoking him. So, when I wanted to speak, Abu Bakr said, ‘Wait a while.’ I disliked to make him angry. So Abu Bakr himself gave a speech, and he was wiser and more patient than I. By Allah, he never missed a sentence that I liked in my own prepared speech, but he said the like of it or better than it spontaneously. After a pause he said, ‘O Ansar! You deserve all (the qualities that you have attributed to yourselves, but this question (of Caliphate) is only for the Quraish as they are the best of the Arabs as regards descent and home, and I am pleased to suggest that you choose either of these two men, so take the oath of allegiance to either of them as you wish. And then Abu Bakr held my hand and Abu Ubaida bin al-Jarrah’s hand who was sitting amongst us. I hated nothing of what he had said except that proposal, for by Allah, I would rather have my neck chopped off as expiator for a sin than become the ruler of a nation, one of whose members is Abu Bakr, unless at the time of my death my own-self suggests something I don’t feel at present.’ And then one of the Ansar said, ‘I am the pillar on which the camel with a skin disease (eczema) rubs itself to satisfy the itching (i.e., I am a noble), and I am as a high class palm tree! O Quraish. There should be one ruler from us and one from you.’ Then there was a hue and cry among the gathering and their voices rose so that I was afraid there might be great disagreement, so I said, ‘O Abu Bakr! Hold your hand out.’ He held his hand out and I pledged allegiance to him, and then all the emigrants gave the Pledge of allegiance and so did the Ansar afterwards. And so we became victorious over Sa`d bin Ubada (whom Al-Ansar wanted to make a ruler). One of the Ansar said, ‘You have killed Sa`d bin Ubada.’ I replied, ‘Allah has killed Sa`d bin Ubada.’ `Umar added, “By Allah, apart from the great tragedy that had happened to us (i.e. the death of the Prophet), there was no greater problem than the allegiance pledged to Abu Bakr because we were afraid that if we left the people, they might give the Pledge of allegiance after us to one of their men, in which case we would have given them our consent for something against our real wish, or would have opposed them and caused great trouble. So if any person gives the Pledge of allegiance to somebody (to become a Caliph) without consulting the other Muslims, then the one he has selected should not be granted allegiance, lest both of them should be killed.”

بَكْرٍ، وَكُنْتُ أُدَارِي مِنْهُ بَعْضَ الْحَدِّ، فَلَمَّا أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمَ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى رِسْلِكَ‏.‏ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أُغْضِبَهُ، فَتَكَلَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَكَانَ هُوَ أَحْلَمَ

عَلَى سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ مِنْهُمْ قَتَلْتُمْ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ قَتَلَ اللَّهُ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ‏.‏ قَالَ عُمَرُ وَإِنَّا وَاللَّهِ مَا وَجَدْنَا فِيمَا حَضَرْنَا مِنْ أَمْرٍ أَقْوَى مِنْ مُبَايَعَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ خَشِينَا إِنْ فَارَقْنَا الْقَوْمَ وَلَمْ تَكُنْ بَيْعَةٌ أَنْ يُبَايِعُوا رَجُلاً مِنْهُمْ بَعْدَنَا، فَإِمَّا بَايَعْنَاهُمْ عَلَى مَا لاَ نَرْضَى، وَإِمَّا نُخَالِفُهُمْ فَيَكُونُ فَسَادٌ، فَمَنْ بَايَعَ رَجُلاً عَلَى غَيْرِ مَشُورَةٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَلاَ يُتَابَعُ هُوَ وَلاَ الَّذِي بَايَعَهُ تَغِرَّةً أَنْ يُقْتَلاَ‏.‏

It was narrated from `Ubaidullah bin ‘Abdullah bin `Utbah bin Mas`ood that Ibn `Abbas told him that ‘AbdurRahman bin ‘Awf went back to where he had halted. Ibn `Abbas said: I used to recite to ‘AbdurRahman bin ‘Awf, and he found me waiting for him. That was in Mina during the last Hajj performed by `Umar bin al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه) Abdur-Rahman bin `Awf said: A man came to `Umar bin al-Khattab and said: So and so is saying: If `Umar (رضي الله عنه) dies, I will swear allegiance to So and so. ʼUmar (رضي الله عنه) said: I will stand before the people today and warn them against these people who want to deprive them of their rights, `Abdur-Rahman said: I said: O Ameer al-Mu`mineen, do not do that, for the Hajj season brings together the riffraff and rabble among the people, and most of the people who gather around and listen to you will be of that type. Is you stand before the people, I am afraid that you will say something that they will spread and not understand it properly or interpret it properly. Rather wait until you come to Madinah, for it is the land of Hijrah and the Sunnah, and you will meet the most knowledgeable and noble people there, and you can say what you want to say with confidence; they wilt understand what you say and will interpret it correctly, `Umar (رضي الله عنه) said: If I reach Madinah safe and sound, I shall certainly talk to the people there in the first speech I deliver. When we came to Madinah at the end of Dhul-I-Iijah, it was a Friday. I set out early, ‘Umar did not care at what time he went out, because he did not pay attention to heat and cold and so on. I found Sa`eed bin Zaid at the right-hand corner of the minbar, he had got there before me. I sat down next to him, with my knee touching his knee, and it was not long before `Umar (رضي الله عنه)came. When I saw him, I said: He will certainly speak today on this minbar and say something that no one ever heard before. Sa`eed bin Zaid objected to that and said: What do you think he will say that no one said before? `Umar (رضي الله عنه)sat on the minbar, and when the mu`dhdhin fell silent, he stood up and praised and glorified Allah as He deserves, then he said: To proceed o people, I am going to tell you something that it has been decreed I should say. I do not know, perhaps it may signal my death. So whoever understands it and remembers it, let him narrate it to others wherever his mount takes him; whoever does not understand il, it is not permissible for him to tell lies about me. Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, sent Muhammad (ﷺ) with the truth and revealed the Book to him; among the things that were revealed to him was the verse of stoning [adulterers). We read it and understood it; the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stoned [adulterers] and we stoned adulterers] after him. But I fear that with the passage of time, some people will say: We do not find the verse of stoning in the Book of Allah, thus they will go astray by forsaking an obligation that Allah revealed. Stoning is the due punishment in the Book of Allah for those who commit zina, both men and women, if they have been married and if proof is established, or there is a pregnancy or a confession, And we used to recite: Do not claim to be the offspring of anyone other than your fathers, as it is disbelief (or ingratitude) on your part to claim to be the offspring of anyone other than your fathers, Verily the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: `Do not praise me excessively as `Eesa, the son of Maryam, was praised; rather I am the slave of Allah, so say, the slave of Allah and His Messenger.` I have heard that some among you are saying. If `Umar (رضي الله عنه) dies, I shall swear allegiance to So and so. No man should deceive himself by saying that the oath of allegiance to Abu Bakr was given suddenly and it was is successful. There is no doubt that this is the case, but Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, saved the to 2 people from its bad consequences and there is no one among you today who has the qualities of Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) What happened to us when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) died was that ‘Ali, az-Zubair and those who were with them stayed behind in the house of Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and all the Ansar stayed behind and gathered in Saqeefat Banu Sa`idah, whilst the Muhajireen gathered around Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) I said to him; O Abu Bakr, let us go to our brothers, the Ansar. So we set out, looking for them, then we were met by two righteous men who told us what the people had done, and said: where are you going, O Muhajireen? I said: We are looking for these brothers of ours, the Ansar, They said. You should not go near them; do whatever you have already decided, O Muhajireen. I said: By Allah, we will go to them. So we carried on until we came to them in Saqeefat Banu Sa`idah, where we found them gathered and among them was a man wrapped up [in a garment. I said: Who is this? They said: Sa`d bin `Ubadah. ! said: What is the matter with him? They said: He is sick. After we sat down, their spokesman stood up and praised and glorified Allah, may He glorified and exalted, as He deserves, then he said: To proceed. We are the supporters (Ansar) of Allah and the majority of the Muslim army. You, O Muhajireen, are a small group among us. Some of you came to us, wanting to deny who we are and prevent us from attaining a position of authority. When he fell silent, I wanted to present a speech that I had prepared and that I liked in front of Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) I used to avoid provoking him and he was more forbearing and more dignified than me. But Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) said: Wait a while. I did not like to make him angry, and he was more knowledgeable and more dignified than me. By Allah, he did not omit any word that I liked in the speech I had prepared but he said something like it or better, speaking spontaneously, until he finished speaking. Then he said: To proceed. Whatever you have mentioned about your achievements and virtues, is correct. The Arabs would not acknowledge the leadership of anyone except someone from this tribe of Quraish, for they are the best of the Arabs in lineage and location. I am pleased to suggest to you one of these two men, whichever of them you want. Then he took hold of my hand and the hand of Abu `Ubaidah bin al-Jarrah, and I disliked nothing of what he had said apart from this, for by Allah, I would rather have my neck struck for no sin on my part than to become the leader of people among whom was Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) unless my own self suggested something at the time of death. One of the Ansar said: I am the post on which the camel with a skin disease scratches itself and I am like a high class palm tree [i.e., a noble]. [I suggest] a ruler from among us and a ruler from among you, O Quraish. – I the narrator said to Malik; What does ‘I am the post on which the cainc! with a skin disease scratches itself and I am like a high class palm tree` mean? He said:It is as if he is saying, I am the smart one who has the answer. – Then there was a great deal of clamour and raised voices, to such an extent that I feared there would be a conflict, so I said: Hold out your hand, O Abu Bakr. So he held out his hand and I swore allegiance to him, and the Muhajireen swore allegiance to him, then the Ansar swore allegiance to him. Thus we surrounded Sa`d bin ‘Ubadah. One of them said: You have killed Sa`d i said: May Allah kill Sa’d! And `Umar (رضي الله عنه) said: By Allah, we never encountered any problem greater than the swearing of allegiance to Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) . We were afraid that if we left the people without having sworn allegiance to anyone, they might swear allegiance after we were gone, so we would either follow in their footsteps and swear allegiance to someone we were not pleased with, or we would disagree with them and that would cause trouble. If anyone swears allegiance to a leader without consulting the Muslims, there is no allegiance for him and no allegiance to the one who swore allegiance to him, lest both of them be killed. Malik said: Ibn Shihab told me, from `Urwah bin az-Zubair, that the men whom they met were `Uwaim bin Sa`idah and Ma`n bin `Adiyy. Ibn Shihab said. Sa`eed bin al-Musayyab told me that the one who said, I am the post on which the camel with a skin disease scratches itself and I am like a high class palm tree, was al-lubab bin al-Mundhir.

Bahiyyah said: I heard a woman asking Aisha about the woman whose menses became abnormal and she had an issue of blood. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) asked me to advise her that she should consider the period during which she used to menstruate every month, when her menstruation was normal. Then she should count the days equal to the length of time (of her normal menses); then she should abandon prayer during those days or equal to that period. She should then take a bath, tie a cloth on her private parts a pray.

[43] Narrated An-Nu’man bin Bashir: I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying, ‘Both legal and illegal things are evident but in between them there are doubtful (suspicious) things and most of the people have no knowledge about them. So whoever saves himself from these suspicious things saves his religion and his honor. And whoever indulges in these suspicious things is like a shepherd who grazes (his animals) near the Hima (private pasture) of someone else and at any moment he is liable to get in it. (O people!) Beware! Every king has a Hima and the Hima of Allah on the earth is His illegal (forbidden) things. Beware! There is a piece of flesh in the body if it becomes good (reformed) the whole body becomes good but if it gets spoilt the whole body gets spoilt and that is the heart.

An-Nu’man bin Bashir (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “What is lawful is clear and what is unlawful is clear, but between them are certain doubtful things which many people do not know. So he who guards against doubtful things keeps his religion and his honour blameless. But he who falls into doubtful things falls into that which is unlawful, just as a shepherd who grazes his cattle in the vicinity of a pasture declared prohibited (by the king); he is likely to stray into the pasture. Mind you, every king has a protected pasture and Allah’s involved limits is that which He has declared unlawful. Verily, there is a piece of flesh in the body, if it is healthy, the whole body is healthy, and if it is corrupt, the whole body is corrupt. Verily, it is the heart.” [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

[47] Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said heard Said ibn al-Musayyab say, “Keeping gold and silver out of circulation is part of working corruption in the land.”

Malik said, “There is no harm in buying gold with silver or silver with gold without measuring if it is unminted or a piece of jewellery which has been made. Counted dirhams and counted dinars should not be bought without reckoning until they are known and counted. To abandon number and buy them at random would only be to speculate. That is not part of the business transactions of Muslims. As for what is weighed of unminted objects and jewellery, there is no harm in buying such things without measuring. To buy them without measuring is like buying wheat, dried dates, and such food-stuffs, which are sold without measuring, even though things like them are measured “

Malik spoke about buying a Qur’an, a sword or a signet ring which had some gold or silver work on it with dinars or dirhams. He said, “The value of the object bought with dinars, which has gold in it is looked at. If the value of the gold is up to one-third of the price, it is permitted and there is no harm in it if the sale is hand to hand and there is no deferment in it. When something is bought with silver which has silver in it, the value is looked at. If the value of the silver is one- third, it is permitted and there is no harm in it if the sale is hand to hand. That is still the way of doing things among us.”

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، يَقُولُ قَطْعُ الذَّهَبِ وَالْوَرِقِ مِنَ الْفَسَادِ فِي الأَرْضِ ‏.‏ قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَلاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ الرَّجُلُ الذَّهَبَ بِالْفِضَّةِ وَالْفِضَّةَ بِالذَّهَبِ جِزَافًا إِذَا كَانَ تِبْرًا أَوْ حَلْيًا قَدْ صِيغَ فَأَمَّا الدَّرَاهِمُ الْمَعْدُودَةُ وَالدَّنَانِيرُ الْمَعْدُودَةُ فَلاَ يَنْبَغِي لأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ ذَلِكَ جِزَافًا حَتَّى يُعْلَمَ وَيُعَدَّ فَإِنِ اشْتُرِيَ ذَلِكَ جِزَافًا فَإِنَّمَا يُرَادُ بِهِ الْغَرَرُ حِينَ يُتْرَكُ عَدُّهُ وَيُشْتَرَى جِزَافًا وَلَيْسَ هَذَا مِنْ بُيُوعِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَأَمَّا مَا كَانَ يُوزَنُ مِنَ التِّبْرِ وَالْحَلْىِ فَلاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يُبَاعَ ذَلِكَ جِزَافًا وَإِنَّمَا ابْتِيَاعُ ذَلِكَ جِزَافًا كَهَيْئَةِ الْحِنْطَةِ وَالتَّمْرِ وَنَحْوِهِمَا مِنَ الأَطْعِمَةِ الَّتِي تُبَاعُ جِزَافًا وَمِثْلُهَا يُكَالُ فَلَيْسَ بِابْتِيَاعِ ذَلِكَ جِزَافًا بَأْسٌ ‏.‏ قَالَ مَالِكٌ مَنِ اشْتَرَى مُصْحَفًا أَوْ سَيْفًا أَوْ خَاتَمًا وَفِي شَىْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ذَهَبٌ أَوْ فِضَّةٌ بِدَنَانِيرَ أَوْ دَرَاهِمَ فَإِنَّ مَا اشْتُرِيَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَفِيهِ الذَّهَبُ بِدَنَانِيرَ فَإِنَّهُ يُنْظَرُ إِلَى قِيمَتِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِيمَةُ ذَلِكَ الثُّلُثَيْنِ وَقِيمَةُ مَا فِيهِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ الثُّلُثَ فَذَلِكَ جَائِزٌ لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَلاَ يَكُونُ فِيهِ تَأْخِيرٌ وَمَا اشْتُرِيَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ بِالْوَرِقِ مِمَّا فِيهِ الْوَرِقُ نُظِرَ إِلَى قِيمَتِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ قِيمَةُ ذَلِكَ الثُّلُثَيْنِ وَقِيمَةُ مَا فِيهِ مِنَ الْوَرِقِ الثُّلُثَ فَذَلِكَ جَائِزٌ لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ وَلَمْ يَزَلْ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَمْرِ النَّاسِ عِنْدَنَا ‏.‏
