Information for "MuwataMalik-017-001-35051"

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ab AlRijal; Muhammad Ibn Abdar-Rahman Ibn Haritha that his mother; Amra bint Abdulrahman used to sell her fruit and keep some of it Aasi de. Malik said; The generally agreed upon way of doing things among us is that when a man sells the fruit of his orchard; he can keep Aasi de up to a third of the fruit; but that is not to be exceeded. There is no harm in what is less than a third. Malik added that he thought there was no harm for a man to sell the fruit of his orchard and keep Aasi de only the fruit of a certain palm-tree or palm-trees which he had chosen and whose number he had specified; because the owner was only keeping Aasi de certain fruit of his own orchard and everything else he sold.
