Hadith 1525 Part D

setting

Ibn Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying

He who buys foodgrain should not sell it, until he has weighed it (and then taken possession of it). I (Tawus) said to Ibn Abbas (Allah be pleased with them): Why is it so? Thereupon he said: Don't you see that they (the people) sell foodgrains against gold for the stipulated time. Abu Kuraib did not make any mention of the stipulated time.
