Hadith 955
۞
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from abu Ayyub from Muhammad ibn Muslim and others who has said the following
“This is concerning my question before abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a man who asked for a loan. He left al-Rahn (security deposit) like a servant or utensils or cloths. The party needed to benefit from them, so he asked permission and he gave permission. He (the Imam) said, if permission is given without compulsion it is not unlawful/ I then said, in our area people see it as if every loan brings benefits. Is it invalid?’ He (the Imam) said, is it not a fact that the best loans are those which attract benefits?’”
1- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ وَغَيْرِهِ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَسْتَقْرِضُ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ قَرْضاً وَيُعْطِيهِ الرَّهْنَ إِمَّا خَادِماً وَإِمَّا آنِيَةً وَإِمَّا ثِيَاباً فَيَحْتَاجُ إِلَى شَيْءٍ مِنْ مَنْفَعَتِهِ فَيَسْتَأْذِنُهُ فِيهِ فَيَأْذَنُ لَهُ قَالَ إِذَا طَابَتْ نَفْسُهُ فَلا بَأْسَ قُلْتُ إِنَّ مَنْ عِنْدَنَا يَرْوُونَ أَنَّ كُلَّ قَرْضٍ يَجُرُّ مَنْفَعَةً فَهُوَ فَاسِدٌ فَقَالَ أَوَلَيْسَ خَيْرُ الْقَرْضِ مَا جَرَّ مَنْفَعَةً.
