حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ النَّخَعِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ زَرَعَ فِي أَرْضِ قَوْمٍ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِهِمْ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ مِنَ الزَّرْعِ شَيْءٌ وَلَهُ نَفَقَتُهُ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ إِلاَّ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ شَرِيكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ . وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ . وَسَأَلْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ هُوَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ . وَقَالَ لاَ أَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ إِلاَّ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ شَرِيكٍ . قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْقِلُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ الأَصَمِّ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَحْوَهُ .

Rāfiʿ ibn Khadīj reported that the Prophet said: “Whoever plants on another people’s land without their permission has no right to the crop, but is entitled to reimbursement for his expenses.” Abū ʿĪsā said: This is a ḥasan gharīb hadith. We know it from Abū Isḥāq only through this chain, via Sharīk ibn ʿAbd Allāh. Aḥmad and Isḥāq acted according to it. Muḥammad ibn Ismāʿīl considered the hadith ḥasan, and said he knew it from Abū Isḥāq only through Sharīk. Muḥammad also narrated a similar report from ʿAṭāʾ, from Rāfiʿ ibn Khadīj, through ʿUqbah ibn al-Aṣamm.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The report distinguishes entitlement to the crop from reimbursement of cultivation costs when land is used without consent.
