أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ وَ أَنَا عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مُسْلِمٌ احْتَاجَ إِلَى بَيْعِ دَارِهِ فَمَشَى إِلَى أَخِيهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبِيعُكَ دَارِي هَذِهِ وَ تَكُونُ لَكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ تَكُونَ لِغَيْرِكَ عَلَى أَنْ تَشْتَرِطَ لِي إِنْ أَنَا جِئْتُكَ بِثَمَنِهَا إِلَى سَنَةٍ أَنْ تَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ بِهَذَا إِنْ جَاءَ بِثَمَنِهَا إِلَى سَنَةٍ رَدَّهَا عَلَيْهِ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهَا كَانَتْ فِيهَا غَلَّةٌ كَثِيرَةٌ فَأَخَذَ الْغَلَّةَ لِمَنْ تَكُونُ فَقَالَ الْغَلَّةُ لِلْمُشْتَرِي أَ لَا تَرَى أَنَّهُ لَوِ احْتَرَقَتْ لَكَانَتْ مِنْ مَالِهِ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Safwan, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘The one who heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> informed me saying, ‘A man asked him<sup>asws</sup> and I was in his<sup>asws</sup> presence, so he said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A Muslim man was needy to sell his house. So he walked over to his brother and said to him, ‘I sell you this house of mine, and for it to happen to be for you is more beloved to me than if it happens to be for other than you, upon the stipulation for me that if I were to come up with its price within a year, you would return it to me’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘There is no problem with this if he comes up with its price within a year, he should return it to him’. I said, ‘Supposing there was a lot of yield (income) in it, for whom would it happen to be?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The yield is for the buyer. Do you not see that if it were to burn down, it would be from his wealth?’
