قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنِّي دَفَعْتُ إِلَى أَخِي جَعْفَرٍ مَالًا فَهُوَ يُعْطِينِي مَا أُنْفِقُهُ وَ أَحُجُّ مِنْهُ وَ أَتَصَدَّقُ وَ قَدْ سَأَلْتُ مَنْ قِبَلَنَا فَذَكَرُوا أَنَّ ذَلِكَ فَاسِدٌ لَا يَحِلُّ وَ أَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى قَوْلِكَ فَقَالَ لِي أَ كَانَ يَصِلُكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَدْفَعَ إِلَيْهِ مَالَكَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَخُذْ مِنْهُ مَا يُعْطِيكَ فَكُلْ مِنْهُ وَ اشْرَبْ وَ حُجَّ وَ تَصَدَّقْ فَإِذَا قَدِمْتَ الْعِرَاقَ فَقُلْ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَفْتَانِي بِهَذَا .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, and Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Huzayl Bin Hayyan a brother of Ja’far Bin Hayyan Al Sayrafi who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘I handed over some wealth to my brother Ja’far, so he gives me what I spend, and I perform Hajj from it, and I give in charity, and I had asked those around us, so they mentioned that, that is invalid and not Permissible, and I would love to end it to your<sup>asws</sup> words’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said to me ‘Did you receive it before you handed over your wealth to him’. I said, ‘Yes’. He<sup>asws</sup> said, ‘So take from it what he gives to you, and eat from it, and drink, and perform Hajj, and give in charity. So when you proceed to Al-Iraq, so say, ‘Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> Bin Muhammad<sup>asws</sup> gave this Verdict to me’.
