The Sufficient (Vol 5) · Hadith 1011 (#Ḥadīth #5)

5- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَزْرَعُ أَرْضَ آخَرَ فَيَشْتَرِطُ عَلَيْهِ لِلْبَذْرِ ثُلُثاً وَلِلْبَقَرِ ثُلُثاً قَالَ لا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُسَمِّيَ بَذْراً وَلا بَقَراً فَإِنَّمَا يُحَرِّمُ الْكَلامُ.

5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Nu’man from ibn Muskan from Sulayman ibn Khalid who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah, Alayhi al-Salam, about the case of a man who cultivated the land of another man; if he could set the condition of one-third for the seed, one- third for the bull. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not proper to mention seed or bull. It is statement that makes it unlawful.’”
