لَيْسَ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلِ وَ وَلَدِهِ وَ بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ عَبْدِهِ وَ لَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ أَهْلِهِ رِبًا إِنَّمَا الرِّبَا فِيمَا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ مَا لَا تَمْلِكُ قُلْتُ فَالْمُشْرِكُونَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُمْ رِبًا قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُمْ مَمَالِيكُ فَقَالَ إِنَّكَ لَسْتَ تَمْلِكُهُمْ إِنَّمَا تَمْلِكُهُمْ مَعَ غَيْرِكَ أَنْتَ وَ غَيْرُكَ فِيهِمْ سَوَاءٌ فَالَّذِي بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَهُمْ لَيْسَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ لِأَنَّ عَبْدَكَ لَيْسَ مِثْلَ عَبْدِكَ وَ عَبْدِ غَيْرِكَ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Yaseen Al Zareer, from Hareyz, from Zurara, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘There is no interest (usury) between the man and his son, and between him and his slave, nor between him and his family. But rather, the interest (usury) is in what is between you and what you do not own’. I said, ‘So the Polytheists, is there interest (usury) in between me and them?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’. I said, ‘But they are owned slaves’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘You do not own them. But rather you own them along with other. You and other are equal regarding them. Thus, that which is between you and them is not from that, because your slave is not like (one who is) your slave as well as a slave of others (jointly owned)’.
