قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَيَّنْتُ رَجُلًا عِينَةً فَقُلْتُ لَهُ اقْضِنِي فَقَالَ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي فَعَيِّنِّي حَتَّى أَقْضِيَكَ قَالَ عَيِّنْهُ حَتَّى يَقْضِيَكَ .


Translation

Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Haroun Bin Kharjat who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘I do a buy-back deal (عَيَّنْتُ) with a man, so I say to him, ‘Pay me’. So he says, ‘There is nothing with me, so keep on doing buy-back deal with me (rolling it over) until I pay you’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Keep buying back (عَيِّنْهُ) with him until he pays you’.
