قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَكُونُ لِلرَّجُلِ عِنْدِيَ الدَّرَاهِمُ الْوَضَحُ فَيَلْقَانِي فَيَقُولُ لِي كَيْفَ سِعْرُ الْوَضَحِ الْيَوْمَ فَأَقُولُ لَهُ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَيَقُولُ أَ لَيْسَ لِي عِنْدَكَ كَذَا وَ كَذَا أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ وَضَحاً فَأَقُولُ بَلَى فَيَقُولُ لِي حَوِّلْهَا إِلَى دَنَانِيرَ بِهَذَا السِّعْرِ وَ أَثْبِتْهَا لِي عِنْدَكَ فَمَا تَرَى فِي هَذَا فَقَالَ لِي إِذَا كُنْتَ قَدِ اسْتَقْصَيْتَ لَهُ السِّعْرَ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي لَمْ أُوَازِنْهُ وَ لَمْ أُنَاقِدْهُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ كَلَامٌ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُ فَقَالَ أَ لَيْسَ الدَّرَاهِمُ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ وَ الدَّنَانِيرُ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, and Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘There happened to be some clear Dirhams with me for a man. So he met up with me and he said to me, ‘What is the price of the clear (Dirhams) today?’ So I said to him, ‘Such and such’. So he said, ‘Isn’t there such and such thousand clear Dirhams with you for me?’ So I said, ‘Yes’. So he said to me, ‘Change these to Dinars with this price and affirm these for me with you’. So what is your<sup>asws</sup> view regarding this?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said to me: ‘When it was such that the price (rate of exchange) on that day was checked for him, so there is no problem with that’. So I said, ‘I did not weigh it and did not cash it, but rather it was a speech between me and him’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Is it not that the Dirhams were with you and the Dinars were with you?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So there is no problem with that’.
