قُلْتُ لِلرِّضَا ( عليه السلام ) الرَّجُلُ يَكُونُ لَهُ الْمَالُ قَدْ حَلَّ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ يَبِيعُهُ لُؤْلُؤَةً تَسْوَى مِائَةَ دِرْهَمٍ بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ وَ يُؤَخِّرُ عَنْهُ الْمَالَ إِلَى وَقْتٍ قَالَ لَا بَأْسَ قَدْ أَمَرَنِي أَبِي فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ وَ زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ .
Translation
Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Abdullah, from his uncle Muhammad Bin Abdullah, from Muhammad Bin Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘I said to Al-Reza<sup>asws</sup>, ‘The man who happens to have the wealth for him which had become due upon his companions. Can he sell him a pearl at a fixed price of one hundred Dirham for a thousand Dirhams, and he delays the wealth from him to a specified time?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘There is no problem. My<sup>asws</sup> father<sup>asws</sup> had instructed me<sup>asws</sup> such, so I<sup>asws</sup> did that’. And he (the narrator) claimed that he had asked Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> about it, so he<sup>asws</sup> said to him similar to that’.
