سَأَلْتُ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَرْهَنُ الرَّهْنَ بِمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ وَ هُوَ يُسَاوِي ثَلَاثَمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ فَيَهْلِكُ أَ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ مِائَتَيْ دِرْهَمٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ لِأَنَّهُ أَخَذَ رَهْناً فِيهِ فَضْلٌ وَ ضَيَّعَهُ قُلْتُ فَهَلَكَ نِصْفُ الرَّهْنِ قَالَ عَلَى حِسَابِ ذَلِكَ قُلْتُ فَيَتَرَادَّانِ الْفَضْلَ قَالَ نَعَمْ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, and Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Hammad Bin Usman, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘I asked Abu Ibrahim<sup>asws</sup> (7<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>) about the man who took a security deposit for a mortgage of one hundred Dirhams and it was equated to three hundred Dirham. So it was destroyed. Is it upon the man that he returns two hundred Dirhams to his companion?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes, because he took the deposit wherein was excess, and wasted it’. I said, ‘Supposing half deposit was destroyed?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It would be upon the reckoning of that’. I said, ‘So they would both be returning the excess?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’.
