3403 - وَ رَوَى دَاوُدُ بْنُ اَلْحُصَيْنِ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْعَبَّاسِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَتَكَفَّلُ بِنَفْسِ اَلرَّجُلِ إِلَى أَجَلٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ بِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا دِرْهَماً قَالَ "إِنْ جَاءَ بِهِ إِلَى اَلْأَجَلِ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ مَا قَالَ وَ هُوَ كَفِيلٌ بِنَفْسِهِ أَبَداً إِلاَّ أَنْ يَبْدَأَ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ فَإِنْ بَدَأَ بِالدَّرَاهِمِ فَهُوَ لَهَا ضَامِنٌ إِنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ بِهِ إِلَى اَلْأَجَلِ اَلَّذِي أَجَّلَهُ".
Hadith.3403 - It is narrated from Dawud ibn al-Husayn, from Abu al-Abbas, from Abu Abdullah :
I asked him about a man who guarantees (takes responsibility for) another man's presence until a specified time, and if he does not bring him, he will owe such-and-such amount of dirhams.
Imam
said: "If he brings him by the specified time, then he is not liable for what he mentioned, and he remains a guarantor for his presence indefinitely unless he begins with the dirhams. If he begins with the dirhams, then he is liable for them if he does not bring him by the specified time he had set."
