Explanation of the author's distinction in the custom of measuring and weighing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, why did the author distinguish in the custom of measuring and weighing, making one refer to the custom of Makkah and the other refer to the custom of Madinah?

Answer:
Because that is what was known in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) linked this to the measuring and weighing, so it refers to the measuring and weighing that existed in his time (peace and blessings be upon him).
