٧- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي الصَّبَّاحِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الثَّوْبِ أَدْفَعُهُ إِلَى الْقَصَّارِ فَيُحْرِقُهُ قَالَ أَغْرِمْهُ فَإِنَّكَ إِنَّمَا دَفَعْتَهُ إِلَيْهِ لِيُصْلِحَهُ وَلَمْ تَدْفَعْهُ إِلَيْهِ لِيُفْسِدَهُ.
7. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Tsa from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Tsma’il ibn abu al-Sabbah who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah , about the case of a cleaner man to whom I gave clothes but he burnt them. He (the Imam) said, ‘You can make him compensate, you gave him for mending and not to destroy them.’”
