Hadith.3794 - Maysir, the seller of fabrics, narrated
I said to Abu Abdullah (as): We purchase merchandise on credit, and a man comes and asks, "For how much was it valued for you?" I reply, "It was valued at such and such," and then I sell it to him at a profit.
Imam (as) said: "If you sell it on a profit basis (Murabaha), then he is entitled to the same credit period as you."
I became distressed and said: "We are ruined!"
Imam (as) asked: "Why?"
I said: "Because the goods I sell on a Murabaha basis are purchased from me, and if I deduct from the principal amount to state its valuation, it would cause difficulty."
When Imam (as) saw what troubled me, Imam (as) said: "Shall I not open for you a door that will bring you ease?"
I said: "Indeed, please do!"
Imam (as) said: "Say, 'It cost me such and such, and I sell it to you for such and such,' and do not mention the word 'profit' (Ribh)."

قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنَّا نَشْتَرِي اَلْمَتَاعَ بِنَظِرَةٍ فَيَجِيءُ اَلرَّجُلُ فَيَقُولُ بِكَمْ تَقَوَّمَ عَلَيْكَ فَأَقُولُ تُقَوَّمُ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا فَأَبِيعُهُ بِرِبْحٍ قَالَ "إِذَا بِعْتَهُ مُرَابَحَةً كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ اَلنَّظِرَةِ مِثْلُ مَا لَكَ" قَالَ فَاسْتَرْجَعْتُ وَ قُلْتُ هَلَكْنَا فَقَالَ "مِمَّا" قُلْتُ لِأَنَّ مَا فِي اَلْأَرْضِ ثَوْباً أَبِيعُهُ مُرَابَحَةً فَيُشْتَرَى مِنِّي وَ لَوْ وُضِعْتُ مِنْ رَأْسِ اَلْمَالِ حَتَّى أَقُولَ تُقَوَّمُ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا شَقَّ عَلَيَّ قَالَ "أَ فَلاَ أَفْتَحُ لَكَ بَاباً يَكُونُ لَكَ فِيهِ فَرَجٌ" قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ "قُلْ قَامَ عَلَيَّ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ أَبِيعُكَ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ لاَ تَقُلْ بِرِبْحٍ".
