John Shaqi

قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) رَجُلٌ دَفَعَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ مُضَارَبَةً فَاشْتَرَى أَبَاهُ وَ هُوَ لَا يَعْلَمُ فَقَالَ يُقَوَّمُ فَإِذَا زَادَ دِرْهَماً وَاحِداً أُعْتِقَ وَ اسْتُسْعِيَ فِي مَالِ الرَّجُلِ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Muhammad Bin Muyassar who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A man handed over a thousand Dirhams to a man for ‘مُضَارَبَةً’ speculation on a profit sharing basis. So he bought his own father and he (lender) did not know. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He would be evaluated, so if (even) one Dirham were to increase, he would be emancipated, and he would work regarding the wealth of the man’.
