سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ شِرَاءِ الْقَصِيلِ يَشْتَرِيهِ الرَّجُلُ فَلَا يَقْصِلُهُ وَ يَبْدُو لَهُ فِي تَرْكِهِ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ سُنْبُلُهُ شَعِيراً أَوْ حِنْطَةً وَ قَدِ اشْتَرَاهُ مِنْ أَصْلِهِ عَلَى أَنَّ مَا بِهِ مِنْ خَرَاجٍ عَلَى الْعِلْجِ فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانَ اشْتَرَطَ حِينَ اشْتَرَاهُ إِنْ شَاءَ قَطَعَهُ وَ إِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَهُ كَمَا هُوَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ سُنْبُلًا وَ إِلَّا فَلَا يَنْبَغِي لَهُ أَنْ يَتْرُكَهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ سُنْبُلًا .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Usman Bin Isa, from Sama’at who said, ‘I asked about buying the plants which the man buys, so he does not cut it, and it begins (to sprout) during his leaving it until there comes out corns of barley or wheat, and he had bought it from its origin upon a stipulation that whatever there would be from the taxes, would be upon the non-Muslim. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If there was a stipulated condition when he bought it that if he so desires to he would cut it, and if he so desires to he would leave it just as it is until there happens to be corn, otherwise it is not befitting for him that he leaves it until there happen to be corn’.
