2- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَسَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ يَكُونُ لِلرَّجُلِ عِنْدِيَ الدَّرَاهِمُ الْوَضَحُ فَيَلْقَانِي فَيَقُولُ لِي كَيْفَ سِعْرُ الْوَضَحِ الْيَوْمَ فَأَقُولُ لَهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَيَقُولُ أَلَيْسَ لِي عِنْدَكَ كَذَا وَكَذَا أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ وَضَحاً فَأَقُولُ بَلَى فَيَقُولُ لِي حَوِّلْهَا إِلَى دَنَانِيرَ بِهَذَا السِّعْرِ وَأَثْبِتْهَا لِي عِنْدَكَ فَمَا تَرَى فِي هَذَا فَقَالَ لِي إِذَا كُنْتَ قَدِ اسْتَقْصَيْتَ لَهُ السِّعْرَ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَلا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي لَمْ أُوَازِنْهُ وَلَمْ أُنَاقِدْهُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ كَلامٌ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ فَقَالَ أَلَيْسَ الدَّرَاهِمُ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ وَالدَّنَانِيرُ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَلا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ.

2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from and Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn Mahbub from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah , ‘A man had a certain amount of clear dirhams with me and in a meeting asked me about the rates of clear dirham on that day and I said, ‘It is so and so much today . 5 He asked if he had so and so much thousand clear dirhams with me and I said that he was right and he asked me to change them with dinars with such rate and keep them with me. I wish to have your word about it. He (the Imam) said to me, ‘If you checked the rate thoroughly for him on that day it is not unlawful . 5 I then said that I did not weigh or actually exchange them; it was only exchange of words between us. He (the Imam) asked, ‘Is it not the case that dirhams are with you as well as dinars ? 5 I replied, ‘Yes, that is right . 5 He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not unlawful . 555
