سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ بَيْعِ الْكَلَإِ إِذَا كَانَ سَيْحاً فَيَعْمِدُ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى مَائِهِ فَيَسُوقُهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَيَسْقِيهِ الْحَشِيشَ وَ هُوَ الَّذِي حَفَرَ النَّهَرَ وَ لَهُ الْمَاءُ يَزْرَعُ بِهِ مَا شَاءَ فَقَالَ إِذَا كَانَ الْمَاءُ لَهُ فَلْيَزْرَعْ بِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَ يَبِيعُهُ بِمَا أَحَبَّ قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ بَيْعِ حَصَائِدِ الْحِنْطَةِ وَ الشَّعِيرِ وَ سَائِرِ الْحَصَائِدِ فَقَالَ حَلَالٌ فَلْيَبِعْهُ إِنْ شَاءَ .
Translation
Humeyd Bin Ziyad, from Al Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Sama’at, from Ja’far Bin Sama’at, from Aban, from Ismail Bin Al Fazl who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about selling the pasture when it was dry. So the man endeavoured to water it, so he irrigated the land, and irrigated the grass, and he is the who dug out the river, and for him is the water to pasture with whatever he so desires to. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘When the water was for him, so let him pasture with it whatever he so desires to, and sell it for whatever he so desires to’. He (the narrator) said, ‘And I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about selling the wheat and the barley, and the rest of the harvest. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Permissible, so let him sell it if he so desires to’.
