Hadith.3905 - Abu Al-Rabi' said that Abu Abdillah (as) was asked about a man who comes to the people of a village that has been overburdened by the authorities, making them unable to pay its taxes. The village remains in their possession, but it is unclear whether it fully belongs to them or if others have a share in it. They hand over the village to him on the condition that he pays its taxes. He takes possession of it, pays the taxes, and ends up with a significant surplus. Imam (as) said: "There is no harm in that, as long as such an agreement was made with them."
3905 - قَالَ أَبُو اَلرَّبِيعِ وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : فِي رَجُلٍ يَأْتِي أَهْلَ قَرْيَةٍ وَ قَدِ اِعْتَدَى عَلَيْهِمُ اَلسُّلْطَانُ فَضَعُفُوا عَنِ اَلْقِيَامِ بِخَرَاجِهَا وَ اَلْقَرْيَةُ فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ وَ لاَ يُدْرَى لَهُمْ هِيَ أَمْ لِغَيْرِهِمْ فِيهَا شَيْءٌ فَيَدْفَعُونَهَا إِلَيْهِ عَلَى أَنْ يُؤَدِّيَ خَرَاجَهَا فَيَأْخُذُهَا مِنْهُمْ وَ يُؤَدِّي خَرَاجَهَا وَ يَفْضُلُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ كَثِيرٌ فَقَالَ "لاَ بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ إِذَا كَانَ اَلشَّرْطُ عَلَيْهِمْ بِذَلِكَ".
