Hadith.3934 - Hammad narrated from Al-Halabi, from Abu Abdillah (as): Imam (as) was asked about a man to whom I had lent dirhams in advance for food. When the time came for me to receive the food, he sent me dirhams and said: "Buy food for yourself and settle your due." Imam (as) said: "I think you should appoint someone else to handle the purchase on your behalf and accompany him until you receive what is owed to you. Do not handle the purchase yourself."

Hadith.3935 - Safwan bin Yahya narrated from Ya'qub bin Shu'ayb, who said: I asked Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) about a man who makes an advance payment of 100 dirhams for wheat or dates. When the debt becomes due, the seller says, "By Allah (swt), I only have half of what is owed to you. Take half in wheat and the other half in cash if you wish." Imam (as) said: "There is no harm if he takes the cash just as he had given it." He continued: I asked Imam (as) about a man who owes me a basket of ripe dates, and I take instead a basket of fresh dates, which is less in quantity. Imam (as) said: "There is no harm in that." I then asked: "What if I take instead a basket of dried dates, which is more in quantity?" Imam (as) said: "There is no harm as long as it is mutually agreed upon." I also asked Imam (as) about a man who owes another 100 measures of dates, and the creditor offers to take the debtor's palm trees as payment. Imam (as) seemed to dislike this. I then asked Imam (as) about a man who is owed loads of fresh or dried dates and sends dinars to the debtor, saying, "Buy with these and settle my debt." Imam (as) said: "There is no harm if he trusts him."

3936 - وَ رَوَى صَفْوَانُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يُسْلِمُ فِي غَيْرِ زَرْعٍ وَ لاَ نَخْلٍ قَالَ "يُسَمِّي كَيْلاً مَعْلُوماً إِلَى أَجَلٍ مَعْلُومٍ" قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلسَّلَمِ فِي اَلْحَيَوَانِ وَ اَلطَّعَامِ وَ يَرْتَهِنَ اَلرَّجُلُ بِمَالِهِ رَهْناً قَالَ "نَعَمْ اِسْتَوْثِقْ مِنْ مَالِكَ".

Imam (as) was also asked about saffron, where a man lent dirhams in advance for twenty mithqals, or more or less.
