17- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (a.s) أَنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ﷺ قَضَى فِي رَجُلٍ اشْتَرَى ثَوْباً بِشَرْطٍ إِلَى نِصْفِ النَّهَارِ فَعَرَضَ لَهُ رِبْحٌ فَأَرَادَ بَيْعَهُ قَالَ لِيُشْهِدْ أَنَّهُ قَدْ رَضِيَهُ فَاسْتَوْجَبَهُ ثُمَّ لْيَبِعْهُ إِنْ شَاءَ فَإِنْ أَقَامَهُ فِي السُّوقِ وَلَمْ يَبِعْ فَقَدْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ.


17. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Nawfaliy from al-Sakuniy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s), has said that ’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s), once issued the following judgment: A man had purchased a dress with a stipulation to pay until midday. The buyer was offered profit and he wanted to sell. He (the Imam) said, ‘He must present testimony to prove that the seller agreed and the deal was binding, then he can sell it if he so wants. If he displays it in the market without selling, it makes the transaction binding.’”
