2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Bunan ibn Muhammad from Musa ibn al-Qasim from Ali ibn Ja’far who has said the following
“I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about a man who has made his slave-girl a gift to al- Ka‘bah. What should he do? He (the Imam) said, ‘Once a man who had made his slave-girl a gift to al- Ka‘bah, came to my father (a.s.). He (the Imam) said, ‘Evaluate the slave-girl or sell her; then ask the announcer to stand near the Black Stone and announce, “O those who are short in their expenses, looted on the way or their supplies depleted, come to so and so.” He must distribute it among them on the basis of first come first served until the amount is distributed.’”
2ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ بُنَانِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ جَعَلَ جَارِيَتَهُ هَدْياً لِلْكَعْبَةِ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ قَالَ إِنَّ أَبِي أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ قَدْ جَعَلَ جَارِيَتَهُ هَدْياً لِلْكَعْبَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ قَوِّمِ الْجَارِيَةَ أَوْ بِعْهَا ثُمَّ مُرْ مُنَادِياً يَقُومُ عَلَى الْحِجْرِ فَيُنَادِي أَلا مَنْ قَصُرَتْ بِهِ نَفَقَتُهُ أَوْ قُطِعَ بِهِ طَرِيقُهُ أَوْ نَفِدَ بِهِ طَعَامُهُ فَلْيَأْتِ فُلانَ بْنَ فُلانٍ وَمُرْهُ أَنْ يُعْطِيَ أَوَّلاً فَأَوَّلاً حَتَّى يَنْفَدَ ثَمَنُ الْجَارِيَةِ.
