Summary
Malik says: a mudd of butter is not proper for two mudds of butter, nor a mudd of milk for two mudds of butter. This is like what we described about dates: that two sa's of Kabis dates for three sa's of Ajwa dates, if you do that, is not proper. He made the seller of the milk put milk with its butter in order to take the excess of his butter over the butter of the other, when he added the milk to it. 1
