1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn Yaqtin from his brother al-Husayn from Ali ibn Yaqtin who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu al-Hassan عليه السلام, about the case of a man who rents a ship for a year or less or more. He (the Imam) said, ‘The lease is binding up to the end of its term. Receiving payment of rent is up to the owner who may accept it or leave it.’”
