رَوَى اَلْحَلَبِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "فِي اَلْحَيَوَانِ كُلِّهِ شَرْطُ ثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ لِلْمُشْتَرِي فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ فِيهَا إِنِ اِشْتَرَطَ أَوْ لَمْ يَشْتَرِطْ".
Al-Halabi narrated from Abu Abdillah (a.s) who said: "For all animals, the buyer has a three-day condition (option) to return it, whether he stipulated it or not."
وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ اِشْتَرَى مِنْ رَجُلٍ بَيْعاً فَهُمَا بِالْخِيَارِ حَتَّى يَفْتَرِقَا فَإِذَا اِفْتَرَقَا فَقَدْ وَجَبَ اَلْبَيْعُ".
Imam (a.s) said: "Whenever a man buys something from another man, they both have the option (to cancel the deal) until they part ways. Once they part, the sale becomes binding."
وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ اِشْتَرَى مِنْ رَجُلٍ عَبْداً أَوْ دَابَّةً وَ شَرَطَ يَوْماً أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ فَمَاتَ اَلْعَبْدُ أَوْ نَفَقَتِ اَلدَّابَّةُ أَوْ حَدَثَ فِيهِ حَدَثٌ عَلَى مَنِ اَلضَّمَانُ قَالَ "لاَ ضَمَانَ عَلَى اَلْمُبْتَاعِ حَتَّى يَنْقَضِيَ اَلشَّرْطُ وَ يَصِيرَ اَلْمَبِيعُ لَهُ".
Imam (a.s) was asked about a man who purchased a slave or an animal from another man and stipulated a condition for one or two days. If the slave dies, the animal perishes, or a defect occurs during that period, who is responsible for the loss? Imam (a.s) said: "There is no liability on the buyer until the condition period ends and the sale becomes final."
وَ رَوَى إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ عَنِ اَلْعَبْدِ اَلصَّالِحِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "مَنِ اِشْتَرَى بَيْعاً وَ مَضَتْ ثَلاَثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَ لَمْ يَجِئْ فَلاَ بَيْعَ لَهُ ".
Ishaq ibn Ammar narrated from the Righteous Servant of Allah (swt) (Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (a.s)) who said: "Whoever buys an item, and three days pass without him coming (to confirm or claim it), then the sale is void."
وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: " اَلْمُسْلِمُونَ عِنْدَ شُرُوطِهِمْ إِلاَّ كُلَّ شَرْطٍ خَالَفَ، كِتَابَ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَلاَ يَجُوزُ ".
Abdullah ibn Sinan narrated from Abu Abdillah (a.s) who said: "Muslims are bound by their conditions, except for any condition that contradicts the Book of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, which is not permissible."
وَ رَوَى جَمِيلٌ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ اَلرَّجُلُ يَشْتَرِي مِنَ اَلرَّجُلِ اَلْمَتَاعَ ثُمَّ يَدَعُهُ عِنْدَهُ يَقُولُ حَتَّى آتِيَكَ بِثَمَنِهِ فَقَالَ "إِنْ جَاءَ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ ثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ وَ إِلاَّ فَلاَ بَيْعَ لَهُ".
Jamil narrated from Zurarah, from Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s), who said: I asked him about a man who buys merchandise from another man and then leaves it with him, saying, "I will bring you its price." Imam (a.s) said: "If he brings the payment within three days, then the sale is valid; otherwise, there is no sale for him."
وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى عَنِ اِبْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِبَاطٍ عَمَّنْ رَوَاهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "إِنْ حَدَثَ بِالْحَيَوَانِ حَدَثٌ قَبْلَ ثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فَهُوَ مِنْ مَالِ اَلْبَائِعِ".
In another narration, Ibn Faddal narrated from Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Ribbat, from someone who narrated it from Abu Abdillah (a.s), who said: "If an animal develops a defect within three days, it is the responsibility of the seller."
وَ مَنِ اشْتَرَى جَارِيَةً وَ قَالَ لِلْبَائِعِ أَجِيئُكَ بِالثَّمَنِ فَإِنْ جَاءَ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ شَهْرٍ وَ إِلَّا فَلَا بَيْعَ لَهُ وَ الْعُهْدَةُ فِيمَا يَفْسُدُ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ مِثْلِ الْبُقُولِ وَ الْبِطِّيخِ وَ الْفَوَاكِهِ يَوْمٌ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ.
And whoever buys a bondwoman and says to the seller, 'I will bring you the payment,' then if he brings it within a month, the sale is valid; otherwise, the sale is void. As for goods that spoil quickly, such as vegetables, melons, and fruits, the liability lasts only until the end of the day."
