قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنْ تَلَقِّي الْبُيُوعِ .
The text uses a general phrase, intercepting sales; surrounding reports refer to meeting incoming sellers or goods before they reach the market.
Does the bracketed context clarify the practice without over-specifying this wording?
