Chapter 84 | Buying and Selling Goods
5- حُمَيْدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ غَيْرِ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنِ السِّمْسَارِ يَشْتَرِي بِالأجْرِ فَيُدْفَعُ إِلَيْهِ الْوَرِقُ وَيُشْتَرَطُ عَلَيْهِ أَنَّكَ إِنْ تَأْتِي بِمَا تَشْتَرِي فَمَإ؛ شِئْتُ تَرَكْتُهُ فَيَذْهَبُ فَيَشْتَرِي ثُمَّ يَأْتِي بِالْمَتَاعِ فَيَقُولُ خُذْ مَا رَضِيتَ وَدَعْ مَا كَرِهْتَ قَالَ لا بَأْسَ.
5. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from Muhammad ibn Sama‘ah from more than one person from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from ‘Abd al- Rahman ibn abu ‘Abd Allah who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah , about the case of a broker who buys for a fee. Notes are given to him with the condition that he brings the merchandise and the buyer accepts whatever he likes and leaves the rest. He then brings the goods and says, ‘Take what you like and leave what you dislike.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is lawful.’”
