That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sold a saddle blanket and a drinking bowl. He (ﷺ) said: "Who will buy saddle blanket and drinking bowl ?". So a man said: "I will take them for a Dirham." So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Who will give more than a Dirham ? Who will give more that a Dirham ?" A man agreed to give him two Dirham, so he sold them to him.
