Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْعِنَبِ حَتَّى يَسْوَدَّ وَعَنْ بَيْعِ الْحَبِّ حَتَّى يَشْتَدَّ هَكَذَا. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ. وَالزِّيَادَة الَّتِي فِي المصابيح وَهُوَ قولُه: نهى عَن بيْعِ التَمْرِ حَتَّى تزهوَ إِنَّما ثبتَ فِي رِوَايَتِهِمَا: عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: نَهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ النَّخْلِ حَتَّى تَزْهُوَ وَقَالَ التِّرْمِذِيُّ: هَذَا حَدِيث حسن غَرِيب

Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) forbade selling grapes until they turned black, and grain until it hardened. Al-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud transmitted it from Anas. The addition in al-Masabih—‘he forbade selling dates until they ripened’—is established only in their narrations from Ibn ‘Umar: ‘He forbade selling palm fruits until they ripened.’ Al-Tirmidhi said: ‘This is a hasan gharib hadith.’ Its listed grading is sahih (al-Albani).
