Abu Salih reported: I heard Abu Said al-Khudri (RA) said: Dinar (gold) for gold and dirham for dirham can be (exchanged) with equal for equal; but he who gives more or demands more in fact deals in interest. I sald to him: Ibn Abbas (RA) says otherwise, whereupon he said: I met Ibn Abbas (RA) and said: Do you see what you say; have you heard it from Allahs Messenger ﷺ , or found it in the Book of Allah, the Glorious and Majestic? He said: I did not hear it from Allahs Messenger ﷺ . and I did not find it in the Book of Allah (Glorious and Majestic), but Usama bin Zaid narrated it to me that Allahs Apostle ﷺ said: There can be an element of interest in credit.
