(The previously mentioned chain) from Mujahid who said: “Rafi’ bin Khadij said: ‘The Messenger of Allah forbade us to do something that was beneficial for us, (but we respect and obey the command of the Messenger of Allah). He forbade us to lease land in return for some of its produce.”

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَصِينٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَافِعُ بْنُ خَدِيجٍ نَهَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ أَمْرٍ كَانَ لَنَا نَافِعًا وَأَمْرُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلَى الرَّأْسِ وَالْعَيْنِ نَهَانَا أَنْ نَتَقَبَّلَ الأَرْضَ بِبَعْضِ خَرْجِهَا‏.‏‏ تَابَعَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُهَاجِرٍ‏.‏‏

Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 35b, Hadith 12

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Compiled by the renowned Islamic scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i during the 9th century, the Sunan an-Nasa’i is a pillar of Sunni hadith literature. It is universally recognized as one of the six most important collections, the Kutub al-Sittah. The text is comprised of more than 5,700 individual narrations that meticulously document the traditions and practices of the Prophet Muhammad. What sets al-Nasa’i’s work apart is his exceptionally rigorous critical approach to evaluating the chains of narration. His deliberate exclusion of unreliable reports has led scholars throughout history to regard the Sunan as one of the most trustworthy and authoritative sources for authentic hadith.
