قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) رَجُلٌ لَمْ يُزَكِّ إِبِلَهُ أَوْ شَاتَهُ عَامَيْنِ فَبَاعَهَا عَلَى مَنِ اشْتَرَاهَا أَنْ يُزَكِّيَهَا لِمَا مَضَى قَالَ نَعَمْ تُؤْخَذُ مِنْهُ زَكَاتُهَا وَ يَتْبَعُ بِهَا الْبَائِعَ أَوْ يُؤَدِّيَ زَكَاتَهَا الْبَائِع.
Translation
Hammad Bin Isa, from Hareyz, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Abdullah, said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A man did not pay <span class="iTxt">Zakāt</span> on his camel or his sheep for two years, Then he sells it stipulating upon the buyer that he would be paying the <span class="iTxt">Zakāt</span> on it on what has passed’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes, its <span class="iTxt">Zakāt</span> would be taken from him, and the seller would pursue with it or else the seller would have to pay the <span class="iTxt">Zakāt</span>’.
