John Shaqi

قَالَ مَنْ أَخَذَ الْمِيزَانَ بِيَدِهِ فَنَوَى أَنْ يَأْخُذَ لِنَفْسِهِ وَافِياً لَمْ يَأْخُذْ إِلَّا رَاجِحاً وَ مَنْ أَعْطَى فَنَوَى أَنْ يُعْطِيَ سَوَاءً لَمْ يُعْطِ إِلَّا نَاقِصاً .


Translation

From him, from Yaqoub Bin Yazeed, from Muhammad Bin Murazim,, from a man, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘The one who takes the scale in his hands, so he intends that he take a full measure for himself, does not take except for an overweighing (measure); and the one who gives, so he intends that he would give equal, does not give except for a deficient (measure)’.
