قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) الرَّجُلُ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ الْيَمِينُ فَيُحْلِفُهُ غَرِيمُهُ بِالْأَيْمَانِ الْمُغَلَّظَةِ أَنْ لَا يَخْرُجَ مِنَ الْبَلَدِ إِلَّا يُعْلِمُهُ فَقَالَ لَا يَخْرُجُ حَتَّى يُعْلِمَهُ قُلْتُ إِنْ أَعْلَمَهُ لَمْ يَدَعْهُ قَالَ إِنْ كَانَ عِلْمُهُ ضَرَراً عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَى عِيَالِهِ فَلْيَخْرُجْ وَ لَا شَيْءَ عَلَيْهِ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Sahl, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘The man happens to have an oath upon him, so his creditor gets him to swear with the harsh oath that he cannot leave from the city except by letting him know’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He should not go out until he lets him know’ I said, ‘If he lets him know, he would not leave him’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If his letting him know is harmful upon him and upon his family, so let him go out, and there is nothing upon him (expiation)’.
