سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَسْتَبْدِلُ الْكُوفِيَّةَ بِالشَّامِيَّةِ وَزْناً بِوَزْنٍ فَيَقُولُ الصَّيْرَفِيُّ لَا أُبَدِّلُ لَكَ حَتَّى تُبَدِّلَ لِي يُوسُفِيَّةً بِغِلَّةٍ وَزْناً بِوَزْنٍ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ فَقُلْنَا إِنَّ الصَّيْرَفِيَّ إِنَّمَا طَلَبَ فَضْلَ الْيُوسُفِيَّةِ عَلَى الْغِلَّةِ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ .


Translation

Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan, from Ibn Muskan, from Muhammad Al halby who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the man who exchanges the Kufiyan (coin) with the Syrian (coin), weight by weight. So the money-changer is saying, ‘I will not change for you until you change for me a Yusufiyya with a price with a profit, weight by weight. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘There is no problem’. So we said, ‘But rather the money-changer sought the extra Yusufiyya upon the profit’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘There is no problem with it’.
