As for al-Musayyar, when they said to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that prices had risen and asked the Messenger to set prices for them, he refused to do so and declined to set prices for them. He said: meaning that the matter is in the hand of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. Yes.
