12. Al-Husayn Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Ali al-Katib from fbrahim ibn Muhammad af-Thaqafiy from ‘ Abd Affah ibn abu Shaybah from Hariz from ‘ A ta ’ ibn af-Sa’ib from Zadhan who has narrated the following
“Two men once left something in trust with a woman and said, ‘Do not give it back unless we both are present.’ They remained absent; then one of them came to her and asked for the trust saying, ‘My friend has died.’ She refused and the argument became a great deal. She then gave it to him then the other one came and asked for the trust. She said, ‘Your friend took it saying that you have died.’ They brought it before ‘Umar who said, ‘I see that you are responsible,’ but she said, ‘We must leave it before Ali (a.s.),’ ‘Umar asked him (the Imam) to judge for them. Ali (a.s.), said, ‘She is in trust with me; you had commanded her not to give the trust to anyone of you without the presence of the other, so you must bring your friend (to get her).’ He (the Imam) did not hold her responsible. He (the Imam) said, ‘They only wanted to take away her assets.’”
