أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ دِينَارٍ، يَقُولُ أَشْهَدُ لَسَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ وَهُوَ يُسْأَلُ عَنِ الْخِبْرِ، فَيَقُولُ مَا كُنَّا نَرَى بِذَلِكَ بَأْسًا حَتَّى أَخْبَرَنَا عَامَ الأَوَّلِ ابْنُ خَدِيجٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَى عَنِ الْخِبْرِ . وَافَقَهُمَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ.
ʿAbd al-Rahman ibn Khalid reported to us: Hajjaj narrated to us: Ibn Jurayj said: I heard ʿAmr ibn Dinar say: “I testify that I heard Ibn ʿUmar being asked about khibr. He would say: ‘We saw no harm in it until last year, when Ibn Khadij informed us that he had heard the Prophet ﷺ forbid khibr.’” Hammad ibn Zayd agreed with them.
Translation notes
Khibr is retained as a technical land-cultivation term; the report does not define it here.
