Hadith: Arabic Text followed by English Translation.
عن ابْنَ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما- كَانَ يَقُولُ
نَهَى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يَبِيعَ بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَيْعِ بَعْضٍ، وَلاَ يَخْطُبَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى خِطْبَةِ أَخِيهِ، حَتَّى يَتْرُكَ الْخَاطِبُ قَبْلَهُ، أَوْ يَأْذَنَ لَهُ الْخَاطِبُ.
رواه البخاري ٥١٤٢ و مسلم ١٤١٢
Narrated Ibn `Umar:
The Prophet (ﷺ) decreed that one should not try to cancel a bargain already agreed upon between some other persons (by offering a bigger price). And a man should not ask for the hand of a girl who is already engaged to his Muslim brother, unless the first suitor gives her up, or allows him to ask for her hand.
Narrated by Bukhari, 5142 and Muslim, 1412
