Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَنْبَأَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ لأَنْ يَمْنَحَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ أَرْضَهُ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ عَلَيْهَا كَذَا وَكَذَا ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ لِشَىْءٍ مَعْلُومٍ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ هُوَ الْحَقْلُ وَهُوَ بِلِسَانِ الأَنْصَارِ الْمُحَاقَلَةُ ‏.‏

Translation

Al-Abbas ibn Abd al-Azim al-Anbari narrated to us: Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us: Mamar informed us, from Ibn Tawus, from his father, from Ibn Abbas, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “For one of you to grant his land to his brother is better than taking such-and-such rent for it”—that is, a specified amount. Ibn Abbas said: This is al-haql, and in the language of the Ansar it is called muhaqalah.
