Hadith 17.2

Business Transactions

ENGLISH

Ibn ‘Umar reported God’s Messenger as saying, "Three things should not be rejected:

cushions, oil (<i>duhn</i>)* and milk.” Tirmidhi transmitted it, saying this is a <i>gharib</i> tradition. * It is said that by <i>duhn</i> he meant perfume. <i>Duhn</i> is used of oil or grease with which one anoints oneself. The point of the explanation of the meaning is evidently that a kind of scented oil is here intended.

ARABIC

وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «ثَلَاثٌ لَا تُرَدُّ الْوَسَائِدُ وَالدُّهْنُ وَاللَّبَنُ» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ قِيلَ: أَرَادَ بالدهن الطّيب
