Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَكِيمُ بْنُ جَابِرٍ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةُ بِالْفِضَّةِ مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ حَتَّى خَصَّ الْمِلْحَ فَقَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ إِنَّ هَذَا لَا يَقُولُ شَيْئًا لِعُبَادَةَ فَقَالَ عُبَادَةُ لَا أُبَالِي أَنْ لَا أَكُونَ بِأَرْضٍ يَكُونُ فِيهَا مُعَاوِيَةُ أَشْهَدُ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ.
English Translation
Yahya ibn Sa'id told us, from Isma'il — that is, Ibn Abi Khalid — Hakim ibn Jabir told us, from Ubadah ibn al-Samit, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "Gold for gold, silver for silver, like for like" — until he specified salt. Mu'awiyah said: "This man says nothing of importance," referring to Ubadah. So Ubadah said: "I do not care if I am not in a land where Mu'awiyah is. I bear witness that I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say that."
