سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) وَ قُلْتُ لَهُ أُعْطِي الرَّجُلَ لَهُ الثَّمَرَةُ عِشْرِينَ دِينَاراً عَلَى أَنِّي أَقُولُ لَهُ إِذَا قَامَتْ ثَمَرَتُكَ بِشَيْءٍ فَهِيَ لِي بِذَلِكَ الثَّمَنِ إِنْ رَضِيتَ أَخَذْتُ وَ إِنْ كَرِهْتَ تَرَكْتُ فَقَالَ مَا تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تُعْطِيَهُ وَ لَا تَشْتَرِطَ شَيْئاً قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ لَا يُسَمِّي شَيْئاً وَ اللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مِنْ نِيَّتِهِ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لَا يَصْلُحُ إِذَا كَانَ مِنْ نِيَّتِهِ [ذَلِكَ] .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from safwan Bin Yahya, from Yaqoub Bin Shuayb who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> and I said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘I gave twenty Dinars to the man who had fruits, upon (a stipulation) I said to him, ‘When your fruits are established with anything, so it is for me with that price. If I am pleased I shall take, and if I dislike, I shall leave it’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘You have no leeway that you give him nor stipulate anything’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you<sup>asws</sup>! He did not name anything, and Allah<sup>saww</sup> Knows from his intention of that’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is not correct when that was an intention of his’.
