Hadith 1

رُوِيَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: كُنْتُ أَبِيعُ اَلسَّابِرِيَّ فِي اَلظِّلاَلِ فَمَرَّ بِي أَبُو اَلْحَسَنِ اَلْأَوَّلُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَاكِباً فَقَالَ لِي "يَا هِشَامُ إِنَّ اَلْبَيْعَ فِي اَلظِّلاَلِ غِشٌّ وَ اَلْغِشُّ لاَ يَحِلُّ".

Hisham ibn Al-Hakam narrated: "I used to sell Sabiri (a type of cloth) in the shade, and Abu Al-Hasan the First (a.s) passed by me while riding. Imam (a.s) said to me: 'O Hisham, selling in the shade is deceit, and deceit is not permissible.'"
