قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ وَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) رَجُلٌ دَفَعَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ يَخْلِطُهَا بِمَالِهِ وَ يَتَّجِرُ بِهَا فَلَمَّا طَلَبَهَا مِنْهُ قَالَ ذَهَبَ الْمَالُ وَ كَانَ لِغَيْرِهِ مَعَهُ مِثْلُهَا وَ مَالٌ كَثِيرٌ لِغَيْرِ وَاحِدٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ كَيْفَ صَنَعَ أُولَئِكَ قَالَ أَخَذُوا أَمْوَالَهُمْ نَفَقَاتٍ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ وَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) جَمِيعاً يَرْجِعُ إِلَيْهِ بِمَالِهِ وَ يَرْجِعُ هُوَ عَلَى أُولَئِكَ بِمَا أَخَذُوا .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ali Bin Ismail, from Muhammad Bin Amro, from Ali Bin Al Hassan, from Hareyz, from Abu Ubeyda who said, ‘I said to Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> and Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A man handed over a thousand Dirhams to a man who mixed it with his own wealth and did some business with it. So when he sought it from him, he said, ‘The wealth is gone, and there was for others (as well) with him, similar to it, and a lot of wealth for someone else’. So he said to him, ‘What did they do?’ So he said, ‘They took their wealth, expenses’. So Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> and Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> both said: ‘He has to return his wealth to him, and he has recourse to those with what they have taken’.
