Summary
Malik says: whoever advances payment for Syrian wheat, there is no harm in taking carried wheat after the term is due. Likewise, whoever advances for one kind of goods, there is no harm in taking something better than what he advanced for, or something of lower quality, after the term is due. The explanation: if a man advances payment for carried wheat, there is no harm in taking barley or Syrian wheat; if he advances for Ajwa dates, there is no harm in taking Sayhani or mixed dates; if he advances for red raisins, there is no harm in taking black ones, provided that all of that happens after the term is due and the measure is equal to the measure advanced for. 1
