**Book:** The Book of Musaqah | **Narrator(s):** Habib al-Ma'lm Abu Muhammad حبيب المعلم أبو محمد البصري | **Grade:** Sahih

I asked al-Bara’ b. Azib about the exchange of (gold for silver or vice versa), whereupon he said: you better ask Zaid b. Arqam for he knows more than I. So I asked Zaid but he said: You better ask al-Bara’ for he knows more than I. Then both of them said: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) forbade the sale of silver for gold when payment is to be made in future.
