3794 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ مُيَسِّرٍ بَيَّاعِ اَلزُّطِّيِّ قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنَّا نَشْتَرِي اَلْمَتَاعَ بِنَظِرَةٍ فَيَجِيءُ اَلرَّجُلُ فَيَقُولُ بِكَمْ تَقَوَّمَ عَلَيْكَ فَأَقُولُ تُقَوَّمُ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا فَأَبِيعُهُ بِرِبْحٍ قَالَ "إِذَا بِعْتَهُ مُرَابَحَةً كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ اَلنَّظِرَةِ مِثْلُ مَا لَكَ" قَالَ فَاسْتَرْجَعْتُ وَ قُلْتُ هَلَكْنَا فَقَالَ "مِمَّا" قُلْتُ لِأَنَّ مَا فِي اَلْأَرْضِ ثَوْباً أَبِيعُهُ مُرَابَحَةً فَيُشْتَرَى مِنِّي وَ لَوْ وُضِعْتُ مِنْ رَأْسِ اَلْمَالِ حَتَّى أَقُولَ تُقَوَّمُ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا شَقَّ عَلَيَّ قَالَ "أَ فَلاَ أَفْتَحُ لَكَ بَاباً يَكُونُ لَكَ فِيهِ فَرَجٌ" قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ "قُلْ قَامَ عَلَيَّ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ أَبِيعُكَ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ لاَ تَقُلْ بِرِبْحٍ".
Hadith.3794 - Maysir, the seller of fabrics, narrated:
I said to Abu Abdullah : We purchase merchandise on credit, and a man comes and asks, "For how much was it valued for you?" I reply, "It was valued at such and such," and then I sell it to him at a profit.
Imam
said: "If you sell it on a profit basis (Murabaha), then he is entitled to the same credit period as you."
I became distressed and said: "We are ruined!"
Imam
asked: "Why?"
I said: "Because the goods I sell on a Murabaha basis are purchased from me, and if I deduct from the principal amount to state its valuation, it would cause difficulty."
When Imam
saw what troubled me, Imam
said: "Shall I not open for you a door that will bring you ease?"
I said: "Indeed, please do!"
Imam
said: "Say, 'It cost me such and such, and I sell it to you for such and such,' and do not mention the word 'profit' (Ribh)."
