Regarding The Explanation Of 'Araya
Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَالْعَرَايَا أَنْ يَهَبَ الرَّجُلُ، لِلرَّجُلِ النَّخَلاَتِ فَيَشُقَّ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَقُومَ عَلَيْهَا فَيَبِيعَهَا بِمِثْلِ خَرْصِهَا .
Translation
Ibn Ishaq said
'Araya means that a man lends another man some palm-trees, but he (the owner) feels inconvenient that the man looks after the trees (by frequent visits). He (the borrower) sells them (to the owner) by calculation.
