سَمِعْتُ الرِّضَا ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ يُرَدُّ الْمَمْلُوكُ مِنْ أَحْدَاثِ السَّنَةِ مِنَ الْجُنُونِ وَ الْجُذَامِ وَ الْبَرَصِ فَقُلْنَا كَيْفَ يُرَدُّ مِنْ أَحْدَاثِ السَّنَةِ قَالَ هَذَا أَوَّلُ السَّنَةِ فَإِذَا اشْتَرَيْتَ مَمْلُوكاً بِهِ شَيْءٌ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْخِصَالِ مَا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ رَدَدْتَهُ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ فَالْإِبَاقُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْإِبَاقُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا أَنْ يُقِيمَ الْبَيِّنَةَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ أَبَقَ عِنْدَهُ . وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ يُونُسَ أَيْضاً أَنَّ الْعُهْدَةَ فِي الْجُنُونِ وَ الْجُذَامِ وَ الْبَرَصِ سَنَةٌ . وَ رَوَى الْوَشَّاءُ أَنَّ الْعُهْدَةَ فِي الْجُنُونِ وَحْدَهُ إِلَى سَنَةٍ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, and someone else, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Abu Hammam who said, ‘I heard Al-Reza<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘The owned slave would be returned due to the new occurrences during the year, from the insanity, and the leprosy, and the vitiligo’. So we said, ‘How can one return due to the occurrences of the year?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘This is the beginning of the year (Muharram). So when you buy the owned slave with whom is something from these characteristics, what is between you and (the month of) Zil Hijja, he would be returned to his owner’. So Muhammad Bin Ali said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘So is the absconding one from that?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The absconding one is not from that except if the proof is established that the absconding one was with him’. And it is reported from Yunus as well that the term regarding the insanity, and the leprosy, and the vitiligo is a year. And Al-Washa reported that the term regarding the insanity alone is up to a year.
