Al-Kafi 8922

Translation

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad who said, ‘I said to Abu Al-Hassan^asws, ‘What is inevitable for the people is that they are shaken in this year of theirs (financially turbulent times)’. So I said to him^asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you^asws! When we sell to them by credit it is more profitable’. He^asws said: ‘So sell them with a delay for a year’. I said, ‘(What about) with a delay for two years?’ He^asws said: ‘Yes’. I said, ‘With a delay for three?’ He^asws said: ‘No’.
