It was narrated from Usaid bin Zuhair that he went out to his people, Banu Harithah, and said: O Banu Harithah, a calamity has befallen you. They said: What is it? He said: The Messenger of Allah has forbidden leasing land. We said: O Messenger of Allah, what if we lease it in return for some of the grain? He said, No. He said: We used to lease it in return for straw. He said: No. We used to lease it in return for what is planted on the banks of a stream that is used for irrigation. He said: No. Cultivate it (yourself) or give it to your brother.
It was narrated that Usaid bin Zuhair said: Rafi' bin Khadij came to us and said: 'The Messenger of Allah has forbidden for you Al-Haql. Al-Haql is the third and the fourth. And Al-Muzabanah. Al-Muzabanah is to buy what is at the top of the date-palm trees in return for a certain number of Wasqs of dried dates.'
It was narrated that Usaid bin Zuhair said: Rafi' bin Khadij came to us and said: 'The Messenger of Allah has forbidden something that was beneficial for us, but obedience to the Messenger of Allah is better for you. He has forbidden Al-Haql (renting land in return for one-third or one-quarter of the produce) to you, and says: Whoever has land, let him give it (to someone else to cultivate it) or leave it. And he has forbidden Al-Muzabanah. Al-Muzabanah means when a man has a lot of date-palm trees and another man comes and takes it in return for a certain number of Wasqs of dried dates.'
It was narrated that Usaid bin Zuhair said: Rafi' bin Khadij came to us and I was not sure what he meant. He said: 'The Messenger of Allah has forbidden to you something that used to benefit you, but obedience to the Messenger of Allah is better for you than that which benefits you. The Messenger of Allah has forbidden Al-Haql for you. Al-Haql means share-cropping the land in return for one-third or one-quarter (of the yield). So whoever has land that he does not need, let him give it to his brother (to cultivate it) or let him leave it. And he has forbidden to you Al-Muzabanah. Al-Muzabanah means when a man has a great number of datepalms and says: Take it in return for (a certain number of) Wasqs of dried dates this year.'
Usaid bin Rafi' bin Khadij said: Rafi' bin Khadij said: 'The Messenger of Allah has forbidden something for you that used to be beneficial for us, but obedience to the Messenger of Allah is more beneficial for us. He said: Whoever has land let him cultivate it, and if he is unable to do so, let him give it to his brother to cultivate. '
It was narrated that Mujahid said: I took Tawus by the hand and brought him to Ibn Rafi' bin Khadij, and he told him, narrating from his father, that the Messenger of Allah forbade leasing land. Tawus rejected that and said: 'I heard Ibn 'Abbas (say) that he did not see anything wrong with that.'
(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.
It was narrated that Rafi' bin Khadij said: The Prophet passed by the land of a man from among the Ansar who he knew was in need and said: 'Whose is this land?'

Rafi' came to the Ansar and said: The Messenger of Allah has forbidden something for you which was beneficial, but obedience to the command of the Messenger of Allah is more beneficial for you.

It was narrated that 'Amr bin Dinar said: Tawus regarded it disliked renting out land for gold and silver, but he did not see anything wrong with leasing it in return for one-third or one-quarter (of the yield). Mujahid said to him: 'Go to Ibn Rafi' bin Khadij and listen to his Hadith.' He said: 'By Allah, if I knew that the Messenger of Allah had forbidden that I would not have done it. But my Hadith comes from one who is more knowledgeable than him. Ibn 'Abbas (said) that the Messenger of Allah said: If one of you were to give his land to his brother (to cultivate it), that would be better than taking an agreed portion of the yield. '
