وَعَن عُرْوَة بن أبي الْجَعْد الْبَارِقي: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَعْطَاهُ دِينَارًا لِيَشْتَرِيَ بِهِ شَاةً فَاشْتَرَى لَهُ شَاتين فَبَاعَ إِحْدَاهمَا بِدِينَار وَأَتَاهُ بِشَاة ودينار فَدَعَا لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَيْعِهِ بِالْبَرَكَةِ فَكَانَ لَوِ اشْتَرَى تُرَابا لربح فِيهِ. رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ

‘Urwah ibn Abi al-Ja‘d al-Bariqi reported that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) gave him a dinar to buy a sheep. He bought two sheep for him, sold one of them for a dinar, and came back with a sheep and a dinar. The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) prayed for blessing in his trade, and after that, even if he bought dust, he would profit from it. Al-Bukhari transmitted it. Its listed grading is sahih (al-Albani).
