Narrated Muhammad Bin AlMujalid: Abdullah Bin Shaddad and Abu Burda sent me to Abdullah Bin Abi Aufa and told me to ask Abdullah whether the people in the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ used to pay in advance for wheat to be delivered later. Abdullah replied; We used to pay in advance to the peasants of Sham for wheat; barley and olive oil of a known specified measure to be delivered in a specified period. I asked him ; Was the price paid in advance to those who had the things to be delivered later? Abdullah Bin Aufa replied; We did not use to ask them about that. Then they sent me to Abdulrahman Bin Abza and I asked him. He replied; The companions of the Prophet ﷺ used to practice Salam in the lifetime of the Prophet; and we did not use to ask them whether they had standing crops or not.
