2- حُمَيْدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْمِيثَمِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو نَجِيحٍ الْمِسْمَعِيِّ عَنِ الْفَيْضِ بْنِ الْمُخْتَارِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ مَا تَقُولُ فِي أَرْضٍ أَتَقَبَّلُهَا مِنَ السُّلْطَانِ ثُمَّ أُؤَاجِرُهَا أَكَرَتِي عَلَى أَنَّ مَا أَخْرَجَ اللهُ مِنْهَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ كَانَ لِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ النِّصْفُ وَالثُّلُثُ بَعْدَ حَقِّ السُّلْطَانِ قَالَ لا بَأْسَ بِهِ كَذَلِكَ أُعَامِلُ أَكَرَتِي.
2. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Muhammad from Ahmad ibn al-Hassan al-Mithamiy who has said that narrated to him abu Najih al-Misma‘iy from al-Fayd ibn al-Mukhtar who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah , saying, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, what do you say about a land that I rent from al-Sultan, then rent it to my tenants for, whatever Allah makes to grow, one-half or one-third after excluding the share of al-Sultan. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not unlawful and that is how I deal with my tenants.’”
