Chapter on the Separation That Concludes a Sale, Whether it is by Physical Departure or Verbal Agreement

"My father (as) purchased a piece of land called Al-Urayd. When he finalized the purchase, he immediately stood up and left. Imam Al Sadiq (as) said to Imam Al Baqir (as): 'O father, you left in haste.' Imam Al Baqir (as) replied: 'O my son, I wanted the sale to become binding.'"

I heard Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) say: "I purchased a piece of land, and when I finalized the purchase, I stood up and walked a few steps, then returned. I did this to make the sale binding at the time of separation."
