He said that one of his paternal uncles came to them and said: The Messenger of Allah has forbidden me to do something that was beneficial for us, but obedience to Allah and His Messenger is more beneficial. We said: What is that? He said: The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever has land, let him cultivate it (himself) or give it to his brother to cultivate, and not lease it in return for one-third or one-quarter of the yield nor a specified amount of food (produce).'

But the Messenger of Allah forbade us that. I (Hanzalah) said to Rafi': How about leasing it in return for Dinars and Dirhams? Rafi' said: There is nothing wrong with (leasing it) for Dinars and Dirhams.

During the time of the Messenger of Allah they used to rent land to one another in return for what grew on the banks of streams and where the springs emerged - some areas of which might give good produce and some might give none at all - and the people did not lease land in any other way. So that was forbidden. But as for leases where the return is known and guaranteed, there is nothing wrong with that.'
