The permissibility of pawning (rahn) is evidenced in the by what A'isha, may Allah be pleased with her, narrated: that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, passed away while his shield was pawned with a Jew for thirty sa's of barley. From the Quran, it is evidenced by the Almighty's saying: ﴿And if you are on a journey and find no scribe, then a pledge taken into possession.﴾ [Al-Baqarah:283].
