1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from and Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr from ‘Abd al-Karim from Sama‘ah from abu Basir who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘You must not rent land in exchange for wheat, barley, dates, canals or small amount of water, but you can do so in exchange for gold or silver; gold and silver are guaranteed and those are not guaranteed.’”
1- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَسَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
لا تُؤَاجِرُوا الأرْضَ بِالْحِنْطَةِ وَلا بِالشَّعِيرِ وَلا بِالتَّمْرِ وَلا بِالأرْبِعَاءِ وَلا بِالنِّطَافِ وَلَكِنْ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ لأنَّ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ مَضْمُونٌ وَهَذَا لَيْسَ بِمَضْمُونٍ.
