And ‘Alī ibn Ḥujr al-Sa‘dī and Ya‘qūb ibn Ibrāhīm narrated to me, both saying: Ismā‘īl — that is, Ibn ‘Ulayyah — narrated to us, from Ayyūb, from Ya‘lā ibn Ḥakīm, from Sulaymān ibn Yasār, from Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj, who said: We used to practice muḥāqalah with land in the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and we would rent it out for a third, a fourth, or a specified amount of food. Then one day a man from among my uncles came to us and said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade us from a matter that was beneficial to us, yet obedience to Allah and His Messenger is more beneficial to us. He forbade us from practicing muḥāqalah with land, such that we would rent it out for a third, a fourth, or a specified amount of food. And he commanded the owner of the land to cultivate it himself or have it cultivated, and he disapproved of renting it out and anything other than that.
