Hadith 852
۞
5. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from his father from ibn Bukayr from ‘Ubayd ibn Zurarah who has said the following
“This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a man who held al-Rahn (security-deposit) for an unspecified time and his party disappeared; if he had a time limit within which he could sell al-Rahn (security deposit). He (the Imam) said, ‘No, until his party comes.’”
5- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام)
فِي رَجُلٍ رَهَنَ رَهْناً إِلَى غَيْرِ وَقْتٍ مُسَمًّى ثُمَّ غَابَ هَلْ لَهُ وَقْتٌ يُبَاعُ فِيهِ رَهْنُهُ قَالَ لا حَتَّى يَجِيءَ [صَاحِبُهُ].
