٥- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَغْرَاءِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنَ الْمُثَنَّى سَأَلَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) وَهُوَ يَسْمَعُ عَنِ الأرْضِ يَسْتَأْجِرُهَا الرَّجُلُ ثُمَّ يُؤَاجِرُهَا بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لَيْسَ بِهِ بَأْسٌ إِنَّ الأرْضَ لَيْسَتْ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْبَيْتِ وَالأجِيرِ إِنَّ فَضْلَ الْبَيْتِ حَرَامٌ وَفَضْلَ الأجِيرِ حَرَامٌ‏.
5. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn Faddal from abu al-Mighra’ from Ibrahim ibn Maymun who has said the following: “Ibrahim ibn al-Muthanna’ once asked abu ‘Abd Allah , this, when I was listening, ‘A man leases land, then rents to someone else for more than what he pays.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not unlawful because land is not like a house or a worker on hire. Extra in the rent of a house is unlawful and extra in hiring is unlawful.’”
