Salim bin ‘Abdullah narrated that ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar used to lease his land until he heard that Rafi’ bin Khadij forbade leasing land. ‘Abdullah met him and said: “Ibn Khadij, what do you narrate from the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم : about leasing land?” Rafi’ said to ‘Abdullah: “I heard two of my uncles, who had been present at Badr, telling the people in the house, that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم forbade leasing land.” ‘Abdullah said: “I knew that at the time of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم land used to be leased.” Then ‘Abdullah was concerned that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم : had decreed something and he (‘Abdullah) had not known about it, so he stopped leasing land. (Sahih) Shuaib bin Abi Hamzah narrated it in Mursal form.
