Is the 'araya (exchange of fresh dates for dried dates) permissible specifically for fresh dates, or is the ruling extended by analogy to other fruits?

Question:
Is the 'araya permissible specifically for fresh dates? Is the 'araya permissible specifically for fresh dates, or is the ruling extended by analogy to other fruits?

Answer:
No, it is specific to fresh dates, because the dispensation is limited to what is mentioned in the texts. The default ruling is the prohibition of selling fresh dates for dried dates. The default is prohibition due to the lack of equivalence, but a dispensation was granted due to pressing need. Therefore, it is restricted to the place of the dispensation only, which is fresh dates. Yes.
