قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنَّ لِعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَيَابَةَ دَيْناً عَلَى رَجُلٍ قَدْ مَاتَ وَ قَدْ كَلَّمْنَاهُ أَنْ يُحَلِّلَهُ فَأَبَى فَقَالَ وَيْحَهُ أَ مَا يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ لَهُ بِكُلِّ دِرْهَمٍ عَشَرَةً إِذَا حَلَّلَهُ فَإِذَا لَمْ يُحَلِّلْهُ فَإِنَّمَا لَهُ دِرْهَمٌ بَدَلَ دِرْهَمٍ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father and Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Al fazl Bin Shazaan, altogether from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Ibrahim Bin Abdul Hameed, from Al Hassan Bin Khunays who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘There is a debt due for Abdul Rahman Bin Sayaba upon a man who has died, and he had spoken to him that he should free him, but he refused’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Woe be unto him! Does he not know that for him would be ten for each Dirham when he frees him. So when he does not free him, rather there would be one Dirham for him in exchange for one Dirham’.
