سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ شِرَاءِ الطَّعَامِ مِمَّا يُكَالُ أَوْ يُوزَنُ هَلْ يَصْلُحُ شِرَاهُ بِغَيْرِ كَيْلٍ وَ لَا وَزْنٍ فَقَالَ أَمَّا أَنْ تَأْتِيَ رَجُلًا فِي طَعَامٍ قَدِ اكْتِيلَ أَوْ وُزِنَ فَيَشْتَرِيَ مِنْهُ مُرَابَحَةً فَلَا بَأْسَ إِنْ أَنْتَ اشْتَرَيْتَهُ وَ لَمْ تَكِلْهُ أَوْ تَزِنْهُ إِذَا كَانَ الْمُشْتَرِي الْأَوَّلُ قَدْ أَخَذَهُ بِكَيْلٍ أَوْ وَزْنٍ فَقُلْتَ عِنْدَ الْبَيْعِ إِنِّي أُرْبِحُكَ فِيهِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ قَدْ رَضِيتُ بِكَيْلِكَ أَوْ وَزْنِكَ فَلَا بَأْسَ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Usman Bin Isa, from Sama’at who said, ‘I asked him about buying the foodstuff, from what is measure or weighed, is buying it correct without a measurement or weighing?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If you go over to a man regarding food which had already been measured or weighed, so you buy it from him with a profit, so there is no problem if you were to buy it and do not measure it or weigh it, when it was such that the former buyer had taken it with a measurement or weight. So you should say when buying, ‘I give you such and such amount of profit, and I am pleased with your measurement or your weighing’, so there is no problem’.
