حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ " لاَ يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ دَعُوا النَّاسَ يَرْزُقُ اللَّهُ بَعْضَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ " .

Hisham ibn Ammar narrated to us; Sufyan ibn Uyaynah narrated to us, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir ibn Abd Allah, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “A town-dweller must not sell on behalf of a Bedouin. Leave people to one another; Allah will provide for some of them through others.”

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ " لاَ يَبِيعُ حَاضِرٌ لِبَادٍ دَعُوا النَّاسَ يَرْزُقُ اللَّهُ بَعْضَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ " .
The closing phrase literally says “Allah provides some of them through others,” referring to people’s mutual dealings.
Does “Leave people to one another” convey دعوا الناس in this market context?
