قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْمَدِينَةَ، وَالنَّاسُ يُسْلِفُونَ فِي الثَّمَرِ الْعَامَ وَالْعَامَيْنِ ـ أَوْ قَالَ عَامَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثَةً. شَكَّ إِسْمَاعِيلُ ـ فَقَالَ مَنْ سَلَّفَ فِي تَمْرٍ فَلْيُسْلِفْ فِي كَيْلٍ مَعْلُومٍ، وَوَزْنٍ مَعْلُومٍ . حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ،بِهَذَا فِي كَيْلٍ مَعْلُومٍ وَوَزْنٍ مَعْلُومٍ .

(The sub-narrator is in doubt whether it was one to two years ortwo to three years.)
