4092 - وَ سَأَلَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : عَنْ رَجُلٍ اِسْتَوْدَعَ رَجُلاً أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ فَضَاعَتْ فَقَالَ لَهُ اَلرَّجُلُ إِنَّمَا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ قَرْضاً وَ قَالَ اَلْآخَرُ إِنَّمَا كَانَتْ وَدِيعَةً فَقَالَ "اَلْمَالُ لاَزِمٌ لَهُ إِلاَّ أَنْ يُقِيمَ اَلْبَيِّنَةَ إِنَّمَا كَانَتْ وَدِيعَةً".
Hadith.4092 - Ishaq ibn Ammar asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who entrusted another man with one thousand dirhams, but the money was lost. The trustee claimed that the amount was a loan, while the depositor insisted it was a deposit (wadi'ah). Imam (as) said: "The money is binding upon him (the trustee) unless he provides evidence that it was a deposit."
