2- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْخُدْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي صَادِقٍ قَالَ دَخَلَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ سُوقَ التَّمَّارِينَ فَإِذَا امْرَأَةٌ قَائِمَةٌ تَبْكِي وَهِيَ تُخَاصِمُ رَجُلا تَمَّاراً فَقَالَ لَهَا مَا لَكِ قَالَتْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ اشْتَرَيْتُ مِنْ هَذَا تَمْراً بِدِرْهَمٍ فَخَرَجَ أَسْفَلُهُ رَدِيّاً لَيْسَ مِثْلَ الَّذِي رَأَيْتُ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رُدَّ عَلَيْهَا فَأَبَى حَتَّى قَالَهَا ثَلاثاً فَأَبَى فَعَلاهُ بِالدِّرَّةِ حَتَّى رَدَّ عَلَيْهَا وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ ﷺ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُجَلَّلَ التَّمْرُ.

2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Ibrahim ibn Ishaq al-Khudriy from abu Sadiq who has said the following: “Once ’Amir al-Mu’minin , entered the market of the date sellers and saw a standing woman who was crying and disputing with a man who sold dates. He (the Imam) asked her, ‘What is the matter with you?’ She replied, ‘O ’Amir al-Mu’minin, I bought dates from this man for one dirham and underneath it is of bad quality and it is not like what I had seen.’ He (the Imam) told him to return her dirham but he refused until he (the Imam) said it three times, but he refused; then he (the Imam) raised the whip until he returned her dirham. Ali , disliked camouflaging dates.’”
