وَإِذَا بَاعَ الْمُحْرِمُ صَيْدًا أَوِ ابْتَاعَهُ فَالْبَيْعُ بَاطِلٌ.
Translation: If a person in ihram sells or buys game, the sale is void.
Baʿa means “sold,” ibtaʿahu means “purchased it,” and al-bayʿu batil means “the sale is void.”
Both directions of the transaction are addressed: selling game and buying game while in ihram. The chapter therefore covers not only hunting and slaughter, but also the validity of dealings in protected game.
