LessonsRiba in Particular Exchanges: Flour, Meat, Dates, Oils and Composite GoodsQuiz

ويجوز بيع الرطب بالتمر مثلا بمثل
Translation: Fresh dates may be exchanged for dried dates in equal quantity, according to the position recorded here.

Rutab are fresh dates and tamr are dried dates. The selected Quduri text permits their exchange like for like, so equality at the applicable measurement remains essential. It does not permit extra dry dates simply because the other side is fresh.

There is a genuine disagreement here. Quduri records Abu Hanifa’s position, whereas the two disciples and many jurists reject even an apparently equal fresh-for-dried barter because drying changes quantity. The difference must not be hidden under a universal verdict.
