John Shaqi

قُلْتُ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ نِيَّتِهِ الْوَفَاءُ وَ هُوَ إِذَا كَالَ لَمْ يُحْسِنْ أَنْ يَكِيلَ قَالَ فَمَا يَقُولُ الَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَقُولُونَ لَا يُوفِي قَالَ هَذَا لَا يَنْبَغِي لَهُ أَنْ يَكِيلَ .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Musna Al Hannat, from one of our companions, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A man intends the full measurement, and he, when he weighs, is not good at it in weighing’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So what are they saying, those who are around him?’ I said, ‘They are saying, ‘He does no give full measure’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘This one, it is not befitting for him that he weighs’.
