Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، وَأَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنْ بَيْعَتَيْنِ عَنِ الْمُلاَمَسَةِ وَالْمُنَابَذَةِ ‏.‏

Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us; Abdullah ibn Numayr narrated to us, and Abu Usamah [narrated] from Ubayd Allah ibn Umar, from Khubayb ibn Abd al-Rahman, from Hafs ibn Asim, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade two kinds of sale: mulamasah (a sale concluded by touching) and munabadha (a sale concluded by throwing).

  • قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنْ بَيْعَتَيْنِ عَنِ الْمُلاَمَسَةِ وَالْمُنَابَذَةِ ‏.

    Mulamasah and munabadha name pre-Islamic sale practices whose precise procedures vary in explanation; parenthetical glosses summarize their common sense.

    Are these concise glosses adequate for the two named sale forms?
