حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمِنْهَالِ، قَالَ كُنْتُ أَتَّجِرُ فِي الصَّرْفِ، فَسَأَلْتُ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ فَقَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم. وَحَدَّثَنِي الْفَضْلُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ، وَعَامِرُ بْنُ مُصْعَبٍ، أَنَّهُمَا سَمِعَا أَبَا الْمِنْهَالِ، يَقُولُ سَأَلْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ وَزَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ عَنِ الصَّرْفِ، فَقَالاَ كُنَّا تَاجِرَيْنِ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَسَأَلْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الصَّرْفِ فَقَالَ " إِنْ كَانَ يَدًا بِيَدٍ فَلاَ بَأْسَ، وَإِنْ كَانَ نَسَاءً فَلاَ يَصْلُحُ ".

Abu Asim narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj, who said: Amr ibn Dinar informed me, from Abu al-Minhal, who said: I used to trade in currency exchange, so I asked Zayd ibn Arqam, may Allah be pleased with him. He said that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, had said. Al-Fadl ibn Yaqub told me: al-Hajjaj ibn Muhammad narrated to us, saying: Ibn Jurayj said: Amr ibn Dinar and Amir ibn Musab informed me that they both heard Abu al-Minhal say: I asked al-Bara ibn Azib and Zayd ibn Arqam about currency exchange. They said, “We were both merchants in the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and we asked him about currency exchange. He said, "If it is hand to hand, there is no harm; but if it is deferred, it is not permissible."”
