3946 - وَ سُئِلَ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يُسْلِفُ فِي اَلْغَنَمِ ثُنْيَانٍ وَ جُذْعَانٍ وَ غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى قَالَ "لاَ بَأْسَ إِنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرِ اَلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ اَلْغَنَمُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ اَلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ صَاحِبُ اَلْغَنَمِ نِصْفَهَا أَوْ ثُلُثَهَا أَوْ ثُلُثَيْهَا وَ يَأْخُذَ رَأْسَ مَالِ مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ اَلْغَنَمِ دَرَاهِمَ وَ يَأْخُذَ دُونَ شَرْطِهِمْ وَ لاَ يَأْخُذْ فَوْقَ شَرْطِهِمْ" قَالَ "وَ اَلْأَكْسِيَةُ أَيْضاً مِثْلُ اَلْحِنْطَةِ وَ اَلشَّعِيرِ وَ اَلزَّعْفَرَانِ وَ اَلْغَنَمِ".
Hadith.3946 - Imam (as) was asked about a man who lends in advance for sheep, both two-year-olds and younger ones, until a specified time. Imam (as) said: "There is no harm if the debtor cannot deliver all the sheep he owes. The creditor may take half, a third, or two-thirds of the sheep, and receive the remaining value of what is owed in dirhams. He should take less than what was agreed upon, but must not take more than their agreed value." Imam (as) added: "This ruling also applies to garments, just as it applies to wheat, barley, saffron, and sheep."
