Hadith 1257
Hadith.4471 - Ismail ibn Abi Ziyad narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) that Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said
"Marriage through employment is not permissible in Islam today, such as when someone says, 'I will work for you for such and such a year in exchange for marrying your sister or daughter.' Such an arrangement is forbidden because it reduces her to a price, whereas she is entitled to her dowry."
4471 - وَ رَوَى إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
"لاَ يَحِلُّ اَلنِّكَاحُ اَلْيَوْمَ فِي اَلْإِسْلاَمِ بِإِجَارَةٍ بِأَنْ يَقُولَ أَعْمَلُ عِنْدَكَ كَذَا وَ كَذَا سَنَةً عَلَى أَنْ تُزَوِّجَنِي أُخْتَكَ أَوِ اِبْنَتَكَ" قَالَ "هُوَ حَرَامٌ لِأَنَّهُ ثَمَنُ رَقَبَتِهَا وَ هِيَ أَحَقُّ بِمَهْرِهَا".
